Vice President, Dr Alhaji Mahamadu Bawumia on Monday presented 150 vehicles to a number of Senior High Schools in the continued fulfilment of a pledge by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to provide the necessary logistics to ensure access to quality education for Ghana’s youth.
Made up of 100 buses and 50 pickup trucks, this latest provision of vehicles form part of a broader, ongoing effort by the government, through the Ghana Education Trust Fund (GETFund) and other stakeholders, to not only increase access to education for every Ghanaian child but also provide the necessary infrastructure and logistics to create a conducive environment for teaching and learning.
The Vice President underscored the importance of an efficient transportation system in the education sector, particularly in light of the flagship Free Senior High School programme, and pledged Government’s commitment to doing even more.
He, therefore, urged Heads of the schools to take good care of the vehicles to serve the intended purpose for the schools in ensuring effective teaching and learning.
