A two-storey twelve (12) unit classroom block and a seven hundred (700) bed capacity girls dormitory blocks were commissioned respectively while a brand new Toyota Hilux Picked up with registration number GB-2245-21 was also donated to the school on behalf of President Nana Akufo-Addo.
It should be recalled that Nananom as well as the school authorities pleaded with the President during his last visit to the area to come to the school's aid with regards to infrastructure and a vehicle for the school's administration.
However, the President made a pledge to deliver these important facilities to the school.
Mr George Boakye in handing over the keys to the Ahafo Regional Director for Education, advised the School authorities to ensure that they stick to the culture of maintenance whilst the facilities were used to better the standards of the students.
The Minister further advised the students to take advantage of President Nana Akufo-Addo's Free SHS to learn hard in order to achieve greater success in life.
He stressed that one of the surest ways for the students to achieve their goals was to be disciplined, adding that, by sticking to their books and the instructions of their teachers in the classroom.
He finally commended the headmaster and staff of the school for their massive contributions towards the success of the students in their previous examination and urged them to let the skies be the limit.
The Krontihene of Techimantia, Odefoo Ampong Kromantang II, was grateful to the President for fulfilling his earlier promises made to the school and for that, the Techimantia community. He commended the President for the massive development in the Ahafo Region since its creation.
The Municipal Chief Executive for the Tano South Honourable Collins Offinam Takyi took the opportunity to explain some of the developmental projects done within the last few years by President Akufo-Addo's government.
Member of Parliament Sekyere Yeboah Benjamin assured the people that despite the numerous achievements so far, he was going to collaborate with the Regional Minister, Nananom and the MCE to deliver more projects in the area.
Honourable George Boakye and his entourage took the opportunity of the day to inspect the construction camp site of Rango Construction Limited, messers in charge of the reconstruction of the 40.4 Kilometers asphalt road from Bechem-Techimantia-Akomadan.
