MPs want school closed

The New Times "Members of Parliament have demanded the closure of Ensengnement des Sciences Appliqués (ESA) in Gikondo, Kicukiro District because of unhygienic conditions. With over 750 students, the majority are Genocide survivors who are catered for by the Fund for Survivors of Genocide (FARG).
