A retired Commissioner of the Ghana Police Service and Parliamentary Aspirant for the New Patriotic Party, COP George Tuffour, has cut sod for the construction of a two-storey multi-purpose educational facility for Asenemaso M/A JHS in the Atwima Nwabiagya South Constituency of the Ashanti Region.
Describing the scope of the project in an interview after the ceremony held Wednesday, 2nd April 2025, COP Tuffour, said the facility would include a staff hall, headteacher’s office, staff washrooms, an ultramodern computer laboratory and a library.
According to him, the initiative which was birthed by his Atwima Anidasoɔ Foundation seeks to address the educational infrastructure deficit in the constituency.
He disclosed that the foundation has undertaken a number of projects including renovation works on the boys’ dormitory of Nkawie Senior High Technical School, as well as a school block for Sepaase community and a car park for Atwima Nwabiagya South District Education Office.
He has, therefore, promised to renovate the Toase Senior High staff bungalow which was recently gutted by fire.
In a sincere expression of thankfulness to COP Tuffour and his foundation, the Headmistress of Asenemaso M/A JHS B, Phillis Ama Akpene Ahlijah, said the project would bring great relief to both the staff and pupils of the school.
According to her, the library and computer laboratory would, apparently, reignite a passion for reading and research amongst her pupils and, by extension, all children in the community.
She has, therefore, pledged that when completed, the school would make use of the facility and positively impact the lives of its users.
