The Member of Parliament for Weija-Gbawe Constituency, Jerry Ahmed Shiab, on Friday, November 15, 2025, inspected the stalled construction works on the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) School project at Upper Weija.

The project, initiated under the administration of former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has faced delays, raising concerns about its impact on access to modern educational facilities for young people in the area.

Speaking during the visit, the MP emphasised the critical importance of completing the project to advance STEM education, which she described as “an essential foundation for national development in this era of innovation and technology.”

The inspection formed part of efforts to assess the current state of the project and engage key stakeholders on practical steps to fast-track its completion.

The MP reiterated his commitment to ensuring the development of a robust educational ecosystem that equips young people with the skills needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving global landscape.

He assured constituents that he would continue to push for the timely resumption and completion of the STEM school to enhance learning opportunities in the Weija-Gbawe area.

He added that the project is 77 percent complete, noting that he has taken up the issue with the Minister of Education, Haruna Iddrissu, for the speedy completion of the project to serve the people of Weija.
