He said Dr. Bright Bakye Yelviel Baligi, the Member of Parliament for the Lambussie Constituency had also expressed determination to support and commitment in collaborating with government and the district Assembly to provide the needed educational infrastructure to the residents in the district.

Mr. Naluri urged the community residents to support and encourage their children to use the school block well, be educated and grow productive in the future.

Mr. Sulemana Abass Lopawiise, a representative of the District Directorate of the Ghana Education Service (GES) who received the keys to the facility on behalf of the residents of Tapumu expressed gratitude to the Lambussie District Assembly for the intervention, adding that it would help improve on the educational needs of the community.

He urged the chief and people of Tapumu to support management of the school block to help protect and make good use of the facility to improve pupils’ access to education in the area.
