MARU CONTINUES TO PRIORITIZE ON EDUCATION
The Yangoru-Saussia District Development Authority (DDA) is building the new Kamatohu Primary School in the heart of the Sepik Plains. Member for Yangoru-Saussia District and Minister for International Trade and Investment, Richard Maru said this is the first time in 50 years the people in this area are getting a school for the education of their children. ā€œLike I said many times, we are working hard since my election in 2012 to reach the unreached and to make sure no one is left behind.ā€ He said, this new primary school and three other new primary schools in the district now completes the final effort to make sure every child in Yangoru-Saussia District has access to primary school, high school and secondary school education. ā€œWe have also built a road to this very remote village community and linking their surrounding communities.ā€ ā€œAs we celebrate our 50th Independence Celebrations this year, we have a moral duty to deliver these remote communities all basic services like health and education so they too will have a reason to join our Independence Celebrations.ā€
