Students in the Dormaa Central Municipality are set to benefit from enhanced educational support after John Kwame Adu Jack donated GHC54,000 from his share of the District Assembly Common Fund to assist 33 academically talented but financially needy students.
The presentation ceremony, attended by municipal officials, highlighted collaborative efforts between the Dormaa Central Municipal Assembly and the MP to promote holistic development in the municipality. Speaking on behalf of the Municipal Chief Executive, Dominic Adomah Ameyaw, Sevlo Adjei praised the MP’s commitment and pledged transparency and accountability in the management of resources.
Acting Municipal Director of Education, Phillip Adom Danso, underscored the importance of education in uncovering students’ talents and skills, urging stakeholders to support initiatives that enhance learning outcomes. He also called for backing of mock examinations to prepare candidates for the 2026 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE), emphasizing measures against examination malpractices.
Speaking at the event, a representative of the MP, Yaw Nsiah, stressed that the selection of beneficiaries was merit-based and devoid of partisan politics, reflecting the MP’s priority on education and infrastructure development.
The scholarship recipients include students pursuing teacher and nursing training, other tertiary courses, and three currently undertaking Master’s degree programs. Beneficiaries, including Misaa Afia Alamata, expressed gratitude, noting that the support would significantly reduce financial barriers to their education.
The initiative demonstrates a focused effort to empower youth, enhance human capital, and contribute to long-term development in Dormaa Central Municipality.
