Speaking after the tour, DKPSS managing director pastor Ernest Nakari,challenged the students to work hard in science subjects in order for them to stand a better chance to be selected to MUST after completing their secondary education.

“They should work extra hard and spend sleepless nights in these science subjects if they want to excel in life and become a student at MUST,” Said pastor Nakari.

Nakari further urged government to ensure steady availability of science teaching and learning materials in the country’s Secondary schools.

“Government should make sure that science books as well as laboratory equipment are readily available in schools.” Added pastor Nakari.
