Nana Bobie Ansah, Chief of Bonwire in the Ejisu Municipality of the Ashanti Region, has donated several buckets of paint to the local Senior High Technical School (SHTS) to complete a refurbishment project.
The project is intended to give a facelift to the structures of the only Senior High School at Bonwire.
The donation was in response to an appeal from the newly-appointed Headmaster of the school to Nana Bobie Ansah to support the painting projects.
Presenting the items, Nana Bobie Ansah pledged to make education a topmost priority within his traditional jurisdiction to help improve the quality of education and accessibility.
He urged parents and well-meaning Ghanaians, especially residents in the area, to invest in their wards’ education, which, he observed, was the only way they could contribute their quota to national development.
He further entreated parents to also partner the government to improve the educational system in the country to produce responsible future leaders.
Mr. Acheampong Serebour, Headmaster, who received the items on behalf of the school, expressed gratitude to Nana Bobie Ansah for the kind gesture.
He disclosed that the paints would go a long way to help with the planned facelift to enhance a conducive teaching and learning environment.
He explained that on assumption of office as the Headmaster in June this year, he realised the beauty of the school had waned, because of its old painting, which, he said, compelled him to initiate a new painting project to give the school a new look.
He disclosed that the budget for the project was huge for only the school to finance, and for that matter he had to run to Nana Bobie Ansah for assistance.
