A three-unit classroom block has been commissioned at Betenase in the Akrofuom District of the Ashanti Region in an effort to bridge the educational infrastructure gap in the district, which was begun in 2018.
This adds up to the plethora of infrastructural projects and interventions in the educational sector rolled out by the Assembly to address challenge in the area.
The huge educational infrastructure deficit in Akrofuom District was gradually being confronted to the relief of students and teachers in the District.
The ancillary facility aims to enhance access to Junior High School education at Betenase.
At a short handing over ceremony, Maurice Jonas Woode, District Chief Executive (DCE) for the area, assured the people of Akrofuom that the Assembly would continue to provide the needed social amenities to better their lives.
On the communal initiative to construct teachers’ bungalow to facilitate academic activities, the Member of Parliament (MP) for Akrofuom Constituency, Mr. Alex Blankson, commended the idea and promised to provide the ceiling and painting to facilitate the completion of the project.
In an attempt to safeguard the area, Blankson disclosed of plans to provide a police station and clinic for the community.
On his part, Mr. George Sarfo Kantanka, District Director of Education (DDE), expressed appreciation to the Assembly and charged the chiefs and elders of Betenase to continue to initiate projects for the area, and not necessarily rely on the government for support.
He implored the elders and the school leadership to take good care of the facility.
