GES posts teacher to Second Lady assisted ICT

The Agona West Municipal Directorate of the Ghana Education Service (GES) has posted an ICT teacher to manage the Lower Bobikuma Second Lady-Assisted ICT Centre which has been abandoned for over one year now.

This followed a complaint by Mrs. Sarah Oppong, a government-appointee Assembly Member at Lower Bobikuma at an Assembly meeting at Agona Swedru.

A visit by the Ghana News Agency (GNA) to the ICT Centre has revealed that the newly-posted teacher, Mr Michael Sam, was leading the school children to clean the computers.

Speaking to the GNA, Mr. Sam disclosed that the Agona West Directorate Education gave him a letter dated November 1, to manage the Centre, but because of the nation-wide strike action declared by the 12 labour unions, he could not report until now.

Mr. Sam appealed to the authorities to provide him with the necessary teaching materials to make his work easy. 

Nana Kofi Yeboah the Thirteenth, Chief of Lower Bobikuma, appealed to Mrs. Matilda Amissah-Arthur, Second Lady, to use her good offices to assist school children of cluster schools in the town, to benefit from ICT studies.

The government-appointee assembly woman, Mrs Oppong, led the GNA to interact with the new ICT teacher.
