Following months of silence on the controversial Bamia Primary School construction, Vice President Bharrat Jagdeo announced on Thursday that it was completed. However, a visit to the site yesterday by Regional Chairman of Region 10 Deron Adams revealed that this was not the case.
Jagdeo declared at the press conference, “… the Bamia School that the Hits and Jams people got, well the school is finished now. It’s finished now”. However, according Adams as of yesterday, the schoolyard was not landscaped, there were still piles of sand at different spots and it has not been fenced.
