MEMBER of Parliament (MP) for Gomoa East constituency in the Central Region, Mrs Maame Pokua Sawyer, has handed over a fully-installed and equipped computer mobile laboratory van to five basic schools in her constituency.
The gesture generated great overwhelming cheers from the chiefs, clergies, teachers and pupils of the schools.
The schools, which included Oketsew Basic School, Agona Kwesikum AEDA, Gyasikro, Nkran Asarekwaa Schools, have over the years been deprived of ICT tools hence preventing the pupils from sitting for the ICT paper in the last Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).
The MP’s vision to equip schools with basic tools to realise their potential is not only for children to excel in ICT exams but also to become unique human assets to fit into modern-day 21st century market demands.
The school pupils who were elated by the development composed a song entitled: “Obaatanpa eee Y3n Y3 Wo den nyi, Wo y3 bue” to welcome her as she stormed the Oketsew Basic School to do the presentation.
Hon Sawyer also arranged for 200 dual desks and fixed the doors of Oketsew classrooms after noticing some children had been sitting on stones during teaching and learning periods.
