Tajuddeen Dantata who is an alma-mater of the school, said primary education is the foundation for human capital development, as such, no society should allow its basic education sub-sector to suffer.
“I am shocked to see the level of dilapidation of our primary school (BUK staff school, which used to be among the best schools in Nigeria, history will not vindicate us as old pupils of this noble school if we allow it to remain in this bad condition”
“I am therefore, urging all us to make a serious commitment in supporting this primary school that we all attended to restore its lost glory, as alma-mater, we are the most strategic stakeholders who can give an emergency rescue to the school for immediate renovation to ensure conducive teaching and learning atmosphere”
