WASEC 1984 year group donates 80 tables and 160 benches worth GH¢96,000 to alma mater

The 1984 year group of Wa Senior High School (WASEC) presented dining hall furniture valued at GH¢96,000 to their alma mater on Wednesday. The donation, consisting of 80 tables and 160 benches composed of plywood and metal, was presented during Students' Representative Council (SRC) Week festivities. WASEC's Headmaster, Iddrisu Adams Thirdman, expressed that the furniture would significantly alleviate strain on the dining hall.

Dr. Solomon Dansie, the Wa Municipal Chairman of the WASOSA, elucidated that the school's dining hall, constructed in the 1980s, was originally designed for 700 students but now accommodates over 2,000 students, with only 25 tables and benches available. Dr. Dansie initiated the matter on the WASOSA platform, which was subsequently acknowledged by Seydu Mahama Sumani, an alumnus from the United States.

Sumani led the 1984 year group in spearheading this initiative under the Chairmanship of Alhaji Mohamed Ahmed. Alumni representative Laweh Emmanuel conveyed on behalf of the group that their contribution was a testament to the enduring impact of the school on their lives, emphasizing discipline, resilience, unity, and lifelong friendship.

Dr. Dansie underscored that nearly all members of the 1984 year group are now retirees, acknowledging their act as a substantial sacrifice.
