Member of Parliament for Gushegu, Hon. Lawyer Sulemana Alhassan Tampuli, has handed over two key educational facilities, a Dining Hall facility, and Girls’ Dormitory block to management of Gushegu Senior High School following successful completion of the projects.

The commissioning of the projects which took place on Wednesday, 14th January 2026 at the Gushegu SHS, aims to address infrastructural challenges faced the school which serve as a threat to learning environment of the students on campus.

The intervention by the MP became necessary when the Girls’ Dormitory block was destroyed by rainstorm, compelling them to pitch camp at the Dining Hall as temporal place of abode on campus, while also resorting to eating outside the dining hall due to infrastructural deficit.

This follows the MP’s initiative to rebuild the dinning hall too after it was also knocked down by a wind storm.

Addressing the students, the MP said ” I’m here to do two-in-one thing, because the dining hall that we had before was completely knocked down, it was nothing to write home about. So we have to rebuild the dinning hall entirely.Right from the scratch, we pulled all down and we raised it from the ground all the way to where it is right now today. Just as we were about to hand over the dinning hall, we had a disaster that struck the Girls’ Dormitory. So the girls have to be moved to the dining hall and the dining hall became the girls’ Dormitory and you don’t have have a dining hall presently.So you have been eating your meals outside.And that is not the appropriate thing.When I went to Tamasco I spent 5 years in Tamasco, I never for once ate outside so I don’t see why my lovely students will be eating outside”.

He further stated that “So I have to take quick steps to make sure that you go back into the dinning hall to secure your safety.Otherwise when it is raining, you are in the rains to eat, that is not proper. We owe you that responsibility. So as you are moving back to the your Dormitories you be freeing up the dinning hall for its appropriate use. So we are not just handing over the Girls’ Dormitory but we are also handing over the dinning hall to the school. So it is a two-in-one exercise we are undertaking today”.

At a short ceremony to hand over the projects to the school, Hon. Alhassan Tampuli reiterated his unflinching commitment to improving the infrastructure base of the school. While also with immediate effect donated 100 bags of cement, aimed at complementing the construction of the school’s fence wall as clear manifestation of his drive to develop the school most important solving its infrastructural issues.

On behalf of the students, the Girls’ Prefect of the school, in her speech heaped praises on the MP, conveying a profound gratitude to him for his intervention to mitigate their plight although she further asks for more interventions like Oliver Twist, as they are still in dire need of educational facilities.
