As I walked up to the school's administration block, the mason and the team of communal laborers were laying the blocks on the two end gables, the last bit of blockwork to be completed before roofing could begin. Just two days before, the truckload of wood from Techiman - a large market town in central Ghana - had arrived at N.A.B.S.S. We're ready to roof this thing! The next time I get up to Nakpanduri the first week in March, the roofing, celing, plastering, and flooring will all be completed. All the materials are there, the workers have been paid - there's no reason this shouldn't happen. The headmaster and I will then go to Tamale together and buy EVERYTHING that's needed to complete the dorm - paint, window screens and burglar proofing, the doors and locks, and electrical wiring.
My last visit to Nakpanduri will be the 29th of March. Invitations will go out shortly for the commisioning ceremony to be held on that date...
YOU ARE ALL INVITED!!!

Rock steady dude!! I am thoroughly impressed by your achievement. I remember when Yenugu, a girl I helped from Bimbagu, went to NABSS and not only got soaked when it rained but also had her stuff stolen multiple times at the old makeshift girls dorm. You are truly addressing a need.
Hats off to you.
