Date Created : 8/31/2026 : Story Author : Susana Danso/Ghanadistricts.com
The items, distributed under his Back-to-School initiative, included metal trunks, plastic buckets, mattresses and exercise books to help ease the financial burden on families preparing their children for the transition to SHS.
The beneficiaries were drawn from the Lashibi, Halcrow, Sakumono Estate, Kaiser, Wolei, Railways, Adjei-Kojo, Baatsona, Klagon, Kassadjan and Dzata-Bu electoral areas.
Speaking during the presentation, Mr Enu said the initiative was aimed at supporting families, particularly those who might struggle to provide the basic items required by students entering SHS.
He urged the beneficiaries to take their education seriously, stressing that education remained a critical foundation for achieving their aspirations and building successful careers..jpg)
The MP encouraged the students to remain disciplined, focused and committed to their studies, saying the knowledge, skills and values they acquired would enable them to contribute meaningfully to the development of the country.
He pledged to sustain his support for educational initiatives in the constituency as part of efforts to improve access to quality education and enhance teaching and learning outcomes.
Dr Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo, First Adviser to the Vice President and Board Chairman of the Ghana Cocoa Board, who also addressed the gathering, called on parents, schools and community stakeholders to work together to address indiscipline among students.
He said character formation and discipline began at home and required consistent reinforcement by parents, teachers and community leaders.
Dr Ofosu-Ampofo noted that schools alone could not effectively address behavioural challenges, including violence and other forms of indiscipline, without the active involvement of families and communities.
He therefore urged the students to develop self-discipline, manage their time effectively and show respect for their parents, teachers and other members of the community.
Nana Ekow Obiri Mensah, speaking on behalf of the beneficiaries, expressed appreciation to the MP for the support and pledged their commitment to taking their education seriously.
He assured the gathering that the beneficiaries would work hard to become responsible citizens and future leaders who would contribute positively to Ghana's development.
