For years, pupils at Masamba Day Secondary School in Mbala District faced significant challenges in their pursuit of education. Overcrowded classrooms, a lack of proper sanitation facilities, and an inadequate water supply made learning difficult. However, through the persistent efforts of the Citizen Voice and Action (CVA) Committee, the school now boasts a newly constructed 1x3 classroom block, an ablution block, and a mechanized water system—funded through the Ministry of Education and the Constituency Development Fund (CDF).
