The Member of Parliament for North Tongu, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has commissioned a six-unit classroom block, an eight-unit teachers’ bungalows, and a mosque at the Aveyime-Battor Senior High Technical School in the Volta Region.
The project, undertaken in partnership with Qatar Charity, is expected to ease congestion and reduce pressure on existing infrastructure at the school.
The teachers’ bungalow, designed to accommodate eight teachers and their families, is expected to enhance discipline, improve punctuality, and ultimately boost learning outcomes. The mosque, on the other hand, reflects Ghana’s religious diversity and promotes inclusivity within the school community.
Completed in less than 12 months, the project responds to the school’s growing student population and urgent infrastructure needs through the benevolence of the people of Qatar.
Addressing the Qatari delegation, as well staff and students on Tuesday, April 14, the MP who also doubles as the Minister for Foreign Affairs, reaffirmed his commitment to delivering on promises made to his constituents during the 2024 general election.
He further gave the assurance that ongoing dining hall projects across all second-cycle institutions in the constituency will be completed on schedule.
“The teachers no longer have to be stranded in search of accommodation. Their presence on campus will enhance discipline, improve punctuality, and help them save money,” he stated.
“This project is fully integrated. It nurtures not only the mind, but also the heart and the soul.” The MP added
Mr Ablakwa expressed appreciation to the government and people of Qatar for their continued support and commitment to advancing education in Ghana and across the globe.
