Checks at the newly built Salvation Middle School, Alekuwodo, Osogbo, on Monday revealed that officials of the state Ministry of Education were busy inspecting the premises ahead of the commissioning ceremony of the structure on Wednesday.
At Ode Omu Elementary Model  School, construction  works have already been completed, just as some laborers were spotted clearing the weeds around the school as part of the preparations  for resumption for the 2013/2014 academic calendar.
