The commencement of the programme had many dignitaries gracing the occasion with their presence and support.
The ceremony was to unveil the statue of the late Agyendam Kwankyerefo Nana Darkoh Ankrah also known as Elder Napoleon Odehye Ankrah who born on October 26, 1954 and died on the 19th February, 2022 and who through his leadership fought harder for the success of his people and also to cut sod for the construction of the Gate of Wisdom School Complex on the theme "Beyond The Sky Is Our Limit"
The Chief of the community, Nana Benyin XIII showed appreciation to the dignitaries, chiefs, elders and the residents for their support and for making the ceremony a dream come through.
Nana Benyin XIII further emphasized that, although Agyendam community has started the project but they are ready to hand over the Gate of Wisdom School Complex to any governance. Adding that, quality education is their priority as beyond the sky is their limit.
The residents in an interview with NewsAfricaGh News Team lamented over the current state of their school which has left school children dropping out.
NewsAfricaGh checks also has it that, the Old Ebu/Brebia D/A Basic School building is in a deplorable state over lack of feasibility study.
Residents bemoaned that, "our school is not in good condition at all, hence, we wouldn't allow our children to go to school as they can support our farming activities."
"We wouldn't sit aloof for this school building to collapse on our royals and we thank God we have visionary Chiefs and Elders who have taken it upon themselves to build an ultra-modern school complex for the good people of the area. We are solidly behind them to make the dream a reality."
The Agyendam community, therefore appeals to the government and other benevolent bodies to come to aid as a sod cutting has outsetted for the ultra-modern school complex.
