The Member of Parliament for Sege Constituency in the Greater Accra Region, Mr Christian Koletey Otuteye, has assured scholarships to 3 brilliant, needy Junior High School students, from his share of the MP’s Common Fund.
The package will cover the beneficiaries’ fees for their three-year SHS education.
The MP said he was committed to improving education at the basic and senior high school levels, pointing out that the best way to improve education in the area was to institute a scholarship, which would encourage students to study hard.
He was optimistic that the gesture would be sustained to relieve their parents of the burden of paying fees, adding that in the coming years, more students will benefit from the scheme.
