At the presentation, the District Chief Executive, Mr. Thaadeus Arkum Aasoglenang, said the Nana Addo Dankwah Akuffu Addo led government seeks to prioritize education at various levels.

He said the move is aimed at improving teaching and learning activities in schools in the District.

Mr. Aasoglenang said the District Assembly intends to procure more desks in the near future to be supplied to other schools and institutions in the District. “The Assembly is committed to ensuring that the necessary support the District Education Directorate requires is given them, to enable them discharge their mandate appropriately”

The acting District Director of Education for Nandom Mr. Dongyeru Godfrey, who took delivery of the desks, expressed gratitude to the District Chief Executive and the Nandom District Assembly as a whole. He said “The deks will contribute immensely to teaching and learning process in the District”.

The District Coordinating Director for Nandom Mr. Abdul Karim, urged the Ghana Education Service to endeavor to maintain the desks when they breakdown.

Mr. Karim said teachers and school management mostly do not pay attention to school property. “Sometimes there is a little damage to a desk or a window, instead of working on it immediately, it will be left damage beyond repairs” this he said is not in the interest of national development.
