Baba Jamal partners MountCrest University College to offer scholarship to constituents
The partnership is aimed at expanding access to higher education and creating new opportunities for young people.
The Member of Parliament for Ayawaso East Constituency, Baba Jamal Mohammed Ahmed, has formed a partnership with MountCrest University College to provide scholarships for 50 students from his constituency. This collaboration, part of MountCrest's "50-for-50 Scholarship Scheme," aims to break down barriers to higher education and generate fresh opportunities for young people.
MountCrest's initiative underscores its dedication to delivering a top-tier tertiary education and producing graduates equipped to make significant contributions to Ghana and beyond.
During a meeting between MountCrest's management and Baba Jamal, Prof. Helen Yitah, the Rector of the university college, underscored the significance of the scholarship scheme in aligning with the institution's efforts to extend its educational reach to areas of national and professional importance. As the Founder of MountCrest University College and a former Director of the Ghana School of Law, Mr. Kwaku Ansa-Asare emphasized that education is a potent tool for lifting communities out of poverty and empowering individuals.
Despite Nima, in the Ayawaso East Constituency, often being associated with violence, congestion, and poor sanitation, the MP envisions a transformative narrative by harnessing the constituency's strategic location, which is home to several key government institutions and corporate organizations. Baba Jamal views education as a pivotal driver in reshaping the community and pledges to support interested but financially disadvantaged students on their journey to becoming professionals who will serve their community and Ghana.
He reiterated his commitment to making this initiative a reality and highlighted the constituency's proximity to major institutions as an opportunity to be seized, promising further engagement with public agencies, private institutions, and development partners to foster additional educational, economic, and social prospects for the constituents.
