MPs want school closed

PARLIAMENT - Members of Parliament have demanded the closure of Ensengnement des Sciences Appliqués (ESA) in Gikondo, Kicukiro District because of unhygienic conditions. With over 750 students, the majority are Genocide survivors who are catered for by the Fund for Survivors of Genocide (FARG). The poor hygiene conditions, deputies said, put student lives at the school at a big risk. This follows a parliamentary probe committee report, which says the administration is incompetent to run the school on the required standards.
