The SUBEB boss threatened that any contractor who failed to perform up to expectation would be blacklisted by the board.

Meanwhile, Governor Kayode Fayemi has approved the location of the Almajiri Model School in the State at Esun-Ekiti in Ikole Local Government Area of the state.

She commended the community for donating the land on which the school would be built, saying such gesture was a proof that the people were ready to contribute to the development of the state.

Adelabu, who was also at the palace of Elesun of Esun Ekiti, Oba Samuel Omojola, urged the people of the community to cooperate with the contractor that would handle the project to ensure its early completion.
