Due to recent publications through the social media about the deplorable condition in which our students in Owan schools were being educated, Owan Association USA, Inc. sent one of its members to investigate the situation and give a report.

During the investigation, it was discovered that some of our students sat on cement blocks and used cement blocks as a desk in their classroom. We were also told that in some schools, students brought their chairs from home.

One of the goals of Owan Association USA is to assist in providing 21^st century education for our students in Owan local government areas. For this reason, Owan Association USA donated desks and benches to several schools in Owan East and Owan West Local Government Areas.

The benches will seat 1,1425 students. More assistance will follow at an appropriate time for our youngsters in Owan schools.  We thank and appreciate all members that have helped in one way or another to actualize this goal.
