Government has restated its commitment to investing in the education sector in infrastructure development.
Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa indicated during a tour of some GETFUND projects in Accra on Thursday that government is committed to transforming the education quality throughout the country.
He said that it shows a great deal of commitment on the part of gov’t. It is not only about carrying out projects, but it is also about prioritizing the projects and carrying out strategic projects and also seeing it to its completion. All these projects are very essential to the development of the school. We are prioritizing the project; we are investing in projects that would make an impact on the students and will have direct bearing on the learning experience of the student.
His first priority was at the Association of African Universities. The facility, according to the Project Manager, Anthony Atta Bosompem will be the permanent secretariat of the association; it is almost 60 % complete.
