  "account": "North Tongu MP and Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has donated essential supplies to 2,269 newly enrolled Senior High School (SHS) students in his constituency. The newly admitted students were given chop boxes, mattresses and exercise books to mitigate some of the financial challenges they face when starting senior high school. Female students were also given hygiene products, such as tissues and sanitary pads. Mr Ablakwa explained that the gesture is a continuation of a tradition he has upheld to support young people from North Tongu as they embark on the next phase of their education. He was pleased with the scale of this year's distribution and noted that the program continues to expand each year. \"Absolutely delighted to continue with this tradition which gets better every year and ensures that we leave no student behind,\" he stated, urging the beneficiaries to make the constituency proud.",
