"In the words of Nelson Mandela, 'Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.'"
In a concerted effort to address the critical infrastructure gap in education within the Demsa/Numan/Lamurde Federal Constituency, Rep. Kwamoti has prioritized the construction and equipping of classrooms, staff offices, laboratories, examination halls, and ICT facilities.
Rep. Kwamoti emphasized his commitment to education by stating, "Eight out of every ten projects I have executed in the last five years have been in education." This highlights the value he places on the educational advancement of his constituents.
On Tuesday, April 22nd, the lawmaker officially commissioned a new block of classrooms and an office at Pare Girls Secondary School, fulfilling a promise made to the school. The school management had previously expressed concerns about the rising student population and the lack of adequate classrooms and perimeter fencing, which are essential for providing a safe and conducive learning environment for girls.
The school's principal, visibly elated by this development, noted that this timely intervention comes as the students prepare to resume classes next week, ensuring that there will be sufficient classrooms to accommodate them along with a dedicated office for staff members.
At the commissioning ceremony, Hon. Kate Mamuno, Majority Leader of the Adamawa State House of Assembly and representative for Demsa, expressed her gratitude toward Rep. Kwamoti. She underscored the importance of supporting girls' education, invoking the well-known saying, "Educating a woman is educating the world."
Hon. James Iliya, the Honorable Commissioner for Information and Strategy, also lauded the federal lawmaker's efforts to bridge infrastructure deficits across various sectors. He noted that these initiatives align with and complement the vision of Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri's administration.
Mr. Penuel Birsan, Executive Secretary of the Adamawa State Post Primary Schools Management Board, encouraged parents to take advantage of the current administration's free education policy and to motivate their school-age children to attend classes. He also urged parents and students to prepare adequately for the upcoming WAEC examinations, which have undergone changes in their conduct.

The Elders' Forum also voiced their appreciation for the visionary leadership demonstrated by Rep. Kwamoti, urging the community to continue supporting him in his political journey.
