During an official visit in 2006, the Governor of Kinshasa secured a pledge from the Chinese Government for the construction of a new school to be built in Ngiri-Ngiri, Kinshasa. China Jiangsu Construction Development Company won the tender in consortium with the Chinese Engineering Company. Construction began in December 2009 and ended in November 2010. The school included six classrooms, private apartments, four offices, four toilets, a library, and a leisure hall.
