“Proficiency in ICT is now regarded as an important basic skill; it is a basic structure for information and knowledge. I hope and believe that the lab will contribute to ICT teaching and learning in the schools around this community,” he said.
He further urged pupils in the community to utilize the new computer lab to gain practical know-how on the basics of computer and ICT. “It’s up to you to take advantage of it andimprove your ICT skills,” he admonished.
On his part, acting Headmaster of the school, Michael Amenyui, concurred, intimating that without knowledge in ICT, the 21st-century school pupil is in the wilderness and his or her future isbleak.
“This facility will thus go a long way to help pupils of AdakluAhunda Basic School excel in their ICT exams, and in the future, work in technology companies like Vodafone Ghana,” he encouraged.
