On her part, the Cape Coast Metropolitan Director of Education, Phyllis Asante-Krobea said the program is a laudable initiative that is in line with the government’s effort of promoting quality education in Ghana.
She however called on all stakeholders to take a cue from the donation by DLAiD.
“she indicated that “it is wise to invest in education. It has a rippling effect than any other investment, I am afraid cannot give you.”
