One is in Form 2 while the other is in Form 1. I didn\u2019t pay a dime,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen the one in Form 2 was at the JHS level, you had not come to power, so I saved up for his education. Hence, when you introduced the Free SHS programme, I had managed to save GH\u00a24,500. I used this money to buy 150 bags of cement to construct my building. Mr. President, God richly bless you!\u201d the Breman Essiam chief added.<\/p>\n<p>He poured his heart out when President Akufo-Addo was the guest of honour at a durbar organized in his honour on Thursday in the Central Region.<\/p>\n<p>The chief pointed at an increased enrolment in schools; a situation he said had prompted the introduction of the double-track system. He added that it had provided employment for graduates of the University of Cape Coast and University of Education Winneba, who but for that were unemployed.<\/p>\n<p>He said monies which would have otherwise been used for paying fees are now being channelled into other beneficial activities.<\/p>\n<p>Besides, he testified to the veracity of the \u201cone million dollar per constituency\u201d pledge of the government. According to him, his town is a beneficiary.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe programme started and in my town, there is a rig digging the ground for an ultra-modern toilet system to be constructed. This is not found only in my town but also in other parts of the district such as Enyan Denkyira, Abaasa, Ajumako, Enyan Mim, and many other places,\u201d he disclosed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf anybody tells you that the \u2018one constituency, one million dollars\u2019 promise has not taken effect, tell that person it is not true because I\u2019m a living witness to it,\u201d he declared.<\/p>\n<p>He charged all Ghanaians to support President Akufo-Addo and his government. He ended his speech saying \u201cat the end of his eight years as President, the results will be to the benefit of all Ghanaians.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Akufo-Addo entering the durbar grounds at Ajumaku Enyan Essiam The implementation of the Free SHS programme by President Akufo-Addo continues to earn him accolades both locally and internationally, with the latest being the Paramount Chief of Breman Essiam, \u00a0Odefuo Afoakwa III, at Ajumako-Enyan-Essiam in the Central Region.
