history

The place suffered some destruction in the civil war in 1998 . The local school was also destroyed.

The Escola da Boa Esperança school was established here in 2004 and has since become a school complex with a primary school (grades 1 to 6) and a secondary school (grades 7 to 9). The school was created as a result of the project "A School for Bissau", an initiative of the friendship society German-Guinean Society eV from Cologne around the Guinea-Bissua musician and athlete Carlos Robalo, who comes from Ilondé and also donated the property for the school. The first graduates of the school are now attending university. The project continues to support the school. The school now also has a school kitchen and cafeteria, and with its drinking water supply, the school already provides the town's residents with clean water.
