Kade MP hands over libraries to Ghana Education Service

Two Libraries and a resource centre built by the Member of Parliament (MP) for the Kade Constituency, Mr. Ofosu Asamoah were on Friday handed over to the Ghana Education Service (GES) at separate ceremonies at Kade and Asuom.

Mr. Asamoah said he used part of his MPs Common Fund and other supports to construct the projects.

He handed over the keys of the buildings, costing a total of GHC 160, 000 to the Kwaebibirem District Director of Education, Ms Gladys Appiagyei.

Mr. Asamoah said as a result of constraints, the libraries, which he started in 2006, were now being handed over to the GES since the district assembly was reluctant to take over and run them.

He said despite the discouragement by some people in the area by giving a “political colour” to the projects, he was not perturbed and saw to their completion.

Mr. Asamoah asked the two communities to ensure that the facilities were well maintained.

He thanked the Ghana Education Trust (GET-FUND) for the support it offered towards the completion of the projects.

The MP urged students and teachers, especially, to utilize the facilities at the libraries since learning is a lifetime activity.

Receiving the keys, the district director of education, thanked Mr. Asamoah for his foresight and urged that the facilities be fully utilized and kept clean always.
