MY VISION IS TO PROVIDE FREE TRANSPORT FOR STUDENTS IN HARD TO REACH COMMUNITIES - KUMAWU MP
The MP for Kumawu in Ashanti region, Ernest Yaw Anim has disclosed that, he is planning to procure tricycles (pragyia) to convey students in rural communities in the constituency to and from school every day.
This, he believe, will help reduce absenteeism among the students and also encourage parents to send their children to school at their tender age
Hon Ernest Yaw Anim made this known during the 2025 Kumawu MP Teachers’ Awards ceremony held at Kumawu under the theme “Motivating the Teacher; The Tool for Educational Transformation”.
The Overall Best Teacher received a Refrigerator while a teacher in one of the hard to reach communities was given a Motorbike.
Hon Ernest Yaw Anim said he will take steps to fix most of the bad roads leading to rural communities in the constituency to make movement easy for the people
Oheneba Kwasi Agyekumhene, Kumawu Kyidomhene, asked teachers in the Kumawu district to take steps to ban students from playing video games and loitering on the streets of their communities late into the night
Mr Kwame Oduro Owusu, the Kumawu District Education Director, urged teachers in the district who did not receive any award this year to work hard so that they will be rewarded in the coming years.
The Overall Best Teacher, Paulina Afia Ago called on the authorities to post more teachers to the district.
