The financial secretary and the treasurer were saddled with the responsibility to get the number of students who have paid before the next exco meeting which holds in the next few days. It was further stated that as school resumes, the treasurer, financial secretary as well as other exco members who are staff of the school should be available for the first two weeks to collect the PTA levies. More so, the financial secretary and the treasurer are to reconcile the payment made by hand and into the bank before we meet on Friday, 3rd December, 2021.

(5) Provision of hand pumping borehole.
Of the above list, school painting and water was seen as top priority. Hence, it was agreed that paint makers/painters would be invited so that we get the best and affordable quotation. As to water, the existing borehole will be put into functional and proper use, hence, expert in that regard will be invited for cost as soon as possible.
Additionally, as regards the marketing of the school, we have an existing jingle which was said to be okay. The chairman promised to personally visit NTA and Kogi Radio to know how much it costs to air the advert.
It was concluded that internal launching would be done in the next PTA meeting to raise funds
in addition to the PTA levies.
