Every secondary school, every primary school will be electrified,” said Minister Moyo.He said total electrification of all rural schools is in fulfilment of President Mnangagwa’s vision of giving rural children a chance to catch up with those who are in urban areas and electricity is the number one enabler.Minister Moyo said once all rural schools are electrified, it was naturally expected that pass rates will also improve.“If we give electricity to all the schools, we expect that the teachers supervised by their headmasters or school heads, supervised by their district school inspectors, that the results will become better and better than what they were before the electricity,” said Minister Moyo.He implored parents to ensure that children are getting a better education because of the electrification.Leave a ReplyCancel reply
