Assembly has donated assorted teaching and learning materials to Chegli Islamic
Junior High School(JHS) in the Upper West Region.

The Assembly gave out 18 dual desk furniture,
200 atlas books and 40 Longman English Dictionaries to the headmaster and staff

The donation follows an appeal made by the
assembly member of the area and the staff of the school.

Alhaji Tahiru Issahaku Moomin, the Wa
Municipal Chief Executive, who made the donation, urged teachers and community
members to ensure that the educational materials were well preserved and used
for the intended purpose of improving academic performance.

He said government has made education a major
priority and is working hard to make all Ghanaian children go through basic
education, hence the need for the assistance.

Alhaji Moomin said children are the future
leaders of the country and ought to be given the needed support such to harness
their talents for national development.

He urged the public to desist from
policitising issues concerning education and development and focus on
leveraging their efforts to engender development.

the School, expressed joy for the donation and pledged to put the materials
into good use.
