Mr. William Boss Baiden, the Deputy Director Finance and Administration Municipal Education, directorate received the items on behalf of the schools and thanked the assembly for continuously supporting schools in the municipality to achieve their goals.

He assured the assembly that the desks would be properly maintained to prolong their lifespan and serve future generations.
