President John Dramani Mahama has reiterated governments commitment to the provision of quality education in the country. He gave this assurance as he presented 500 vehicles to some schools in the Greater Accra Region at a ceremony today [Tuesday], as part of the second leg of his ‘Accounting to the People’ tour in the Greater Accra Region.
The 500 vehicles consisted of 100 Nissan Navara pickups, 100 Mahindra pickups, 200 33-seater buses and 100 66-seater buses.
Presenting the vehicles in Accra, President Mahama indicated that his administration would not renege on efforts to ensure quality education across all levels.
“We have begun vigorously to construct new schools at the basic and secondary level and we are also expanding infrastructure in existing educational institutions,” he said.
the president further noted that this gesture forms part of government’s commitment to improving education. He was optimistic that “the provision of these vehicles will therefore enhance the efficient and effective delivery of quality in this country.”
president Mahama outlined the beneficiaries of the new vehicles as “the new community day senior high schools, our existing public colleges of education, newly absorbed colleges of education, schools in our newly created districts, our special needs schools, our polytechnics that are soon to become technical universities in September, our public universities, a few private universities and existing senior high schools that have never benefited from the distribution of vehicles.”
