The sod-cutting ceremonies took place on Thursday, September 17, 2026, with the ceremony at two communities Akokofe and Tetreefu.

The project involves the rehabilitation of existing six-unit classroom blocks, including offices, stores and staff common rooms, to improve teaching and learning conditions and provide a better working environment for teachers.

The ceremonies were led by the District Chief Executive (DCE), Hon. Engr. Abdullah Hamidu, accompanied by the District Coordinating Director, officials of the Assembly, representatives of Agyeden Construction and Engineering Ltd., the contractor undertaking the project, as well as chiefs, elders, Assembly Members and residents of the two communities.

The intervention forms part of the Assembly’s efforts to strengthen educational infrastructure and address challenges affecting effective teaching and learning in the district.

The rehabilitation works are expected to improve classroom conditions, provide better facilities for teachers and pupils, and support the delivery of quality education in both communities.

The participation of traditional leaders, local representatives and community members in the ceremonies also highlighted the importance of collaboration between the Assembly and residents in promoting development and ensuring the successful implementation of projects.

When completed, the rehabilitated facilities are expected to provide a more comfortable and supportive environment for teaching and learning at Tetreefu and Akokofe.
