In the face of delayed and sometimes non -availability of subventions which are to be given to Principals in public schools to run minor expenses in the schools across Delta State, it was learnt that the Delta State Commissioner, Basic and Secondary Education, Mrs Rose Ezewu has allegedly mandated (without option) Principals in the state to pay for, or with their money produce the portrait picture of the Governor Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori and she herself to be displayed in their various offices in the schools across the state, the action which would place financial burden on them.


It was learnt that the said project would cost each of the schools’ Principals the sum of #40,000 which they would not find easy to do since they are over stretched in their areas of finance in some maintenance of their schools to make their school comfortable for the students to learn since schools resumed for 2023/2024 academic session.

Reacting to this development, the Chairman, Committee for the Defence of Human Rights, Delta State branch, Comrade Jonathan Giama said it is a wrong move by the Education Commissioner, Mrs Rose Ezewu if the information is true since neither the various Principals are given subventions nor grants to help run expenses in the their various schools
