Asueyi (B/A), Sept. 7, GNA - The Asueyi branch of Wesley Society of the Methodist Church in the Techiman municipality has awarded a scholarship to Joshua Dambole to study at the University of Education. Mr. Joshua Wesley Takyi, secretary of the lay movement of the church in Techiman, told the GNA that the student would pursue a three-year degree course in education.
