IMPROVING EDUCATION IN GHANA

Improving education in this country remains a priority to all government agencies and NGOs. This possibly is so because the future of every country rests with the young ones, and the future of the young ones, mostly, is education. In view of this, the National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA),as part of its corporate social responsibility, donated two water storage tanks (Watatank) to the St. Francis Girls Senior High School at Jirapa in Upper West Region of Ghana. Mr Titus Sorey, the Upper West Regional Director of the Authority, who did the donation, said the school merited the the tanks after they excelled in a quiz competition organized by the Authority during its tenth anniversary two years ago.

He said the school emerged first at the district level, first at the regional level and second at the national level. Madam Rosemary Nyekpieng, the Headmistress of the school said the items donated will help the students to study and even perform better in subsequent academic exercises since it will reduce the time the students spent at the only two boreholes queuing for water. you also have a role to play in promoting quality education in your community, district, region, country and the world at large. Your little support is very vital.
