The king personally constructed blocks of classroom with community effort while a few indigenes and philanthropists who do not want their names disclosed also did the same.
Alapa’s passion for education and the development of the Apa community has been highly commended by residents of the area.
The residents said the approval would bring more development to the community especially in the area of education, while relieving them of the stress of getting secondary education for their children.
