The Koforidua Diocese of the Anglican Church and the Obo Archdeaconry of the Church has presented GH¢ 2,000.00 to the Kwabeng Anglican Secondary Technical Senior High School.

The amount is to help defray some of the cost incurred by the school in caring for 29 students who were admitted at the Koforidua Regional Hospital after a motor accident.

The students were on an excursion to Boti Falls and on their way back the school bus in which they were travelling skidded off the road and entered the bush at Nsubeto on the Mamfi-Koforidua highway.

One female student died and 29 of them were hospitalized at the Koforidua Regional Hospital.

Presenting the cheque to the school on behalf of the church the Archdeacon of Obo, Venerable Jonathan Mills-Odoi said the school fell under the jurisdiction of the Obo Archdeaconry and so members of the Archdeaconry in particular and the whole Anglican Diocese of Koforidua felt the need to support the school and the parents of the students to care for them.

He assured the students and the management of the school of the continuous prayers of the church for the school.

The cheaque was received on behalf of the students, their parents and the management of the school by the Headmistress of the school, Mrs Elizabeth Gadagliu-Dzade who thanked the church for their support and prayers. All the students have been discharged from the hospital and they are doing well.
