Patience Namadingo has taken a hands-on approach to improving education in Machinga District by initiating the construction of a new school block at Wataka Primary School.
In a recently shared 12-minute video, Namadingo provides an inside look into his three-day journey, highlighting the challenges faced by students due to inadequate learning facilities.
Here’s where he is bathing, sleeping, and possibly making music:
The video reveals that some students are forced to learn outdoors, while others occupy classrooms that are in a state of disrepair, posing safety risks. Moved by these conditions, Namadingo decided to redirect funds initially allocated for ambulance repairs in Mangochi to this educational project.
According to the artist, the project involves constructing a 33×8 meter school block comprising three classrooms, with a budget of MK 106,059,336.25.
Namadingo has committed to staying in Machinga until the project’s completion.
