Feb 10, 2007 (TORIT) — Governor Aloisio Emor Ojetuk says the year 2007 is dedicated to service delivery to the people in the whole state of Eastern Equatoria. Adding that construction of John Garang Memorial Primary school has already started and Macdowell Company of Uganda is constructed to build the modern school.

The Company’s manager, Ms. Amony Filder, said they will build six class rooms at cost of about four million US dollars and that the work started last year on 24th December. However contacted government officials from ministries of education and finance could either refute or accept Ms. Amony Filder stated contract value.
