Richard Jakpa, Director of Operations at the National Security Secretariat, and James Wor, the District Chief Executive for Daffiama-Bussie-Issa, inspected construction works on a major STEM school project in the district. The project, funded by the Ghana Education Trust Fund (GETFund), is the most significant investment in the area since its establishment.
Jakpa, who lobbied for the district, expressed his admiration for the rapid progress and high-quality workmanship. He anticipates the school's commissioning by the end of June next year, marking the first STEM Senior High School in the northern part of Ghana. The sprawling campus will house an 18-unit classroom block, a two-storey science laboratory, library, ICT hub, and administration block.
Jakpa emphasized the importance of emphasizing science education over humanities, asserting that it would help propel Ghana to the next level by fostering local manufacturing and addressing challenges in the agricultural sector. The DCE, James Wor, commended the contractor's work and addressed social media claims of slacking, asserting that the quality of work was evident.
