Jachie (Ashanti Region) 11 June ’99
Mr Kojo Yankah, Ashanti Regional Minister has said that education has never been cheap in Ghana as was being wrongly claimed by some people.
Parents had had to sacrifice resources to complement government’s initiative and contributions at providing quality education for their children, he said.
Mr Yankah was addressing the staff and students of the Jachie-Pramso Secondary School (MIGHTY JAPASS) at Jachie as part of a familiarisation tour of the Bosomtwe-Atwima-Kwanwoma district.
Mr Yankah told the students that the next millennium would be an era where science, technology and computers would play a dominant role and that it was only the educated and the professionals who could cope with the challenges.
The Regional Minister, therefore, urged the students to take their studies seriously to enable them make positive contributions to national and global development.
