According to the Administrative Executive for Citi FM<\/strong>, Priscilla Ackun-Mensah, the move was in response to an appeal made by the founder of the school to assist students with learning materials.<\/p>\n

She said \u201cCiti FM’s project called COPE collaborated with EPP to donate these learning materials to equip students with the right learning atmosphere by providing them with the essential learning materials. We also decided to donate the wheelchair to the founder to help him with his movements. It is our desire to keep this partnership to improve education in this area.\u201d<\/p>\n

On his part, the Territorial Manager and Head of public relations for EPP books Mr Faisal Ibrahim Cisse disclosed that the reading materials were worth GHC20, 000.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Citi News<\/strong>, Mr Ibrahim Cisse said, \u201cwe saw the need to help this school with the right learning materials. We did not just bring any books here just to fill their libraries but books that have been recommended by the school and will be essential to their development.\u201d<\/p>\n

The founder of the school, Emmanuel Ashie NiiQuaye who received the donation on behalf of the school expressed gratitude to the donors and assured that the materials will be put to good use.<\/p>\n

He also expressed his contentment for the wheelchair to help his movement since he has been paralyzed for some years now.<\/p>\n

He told Citi News<\/strong> \u201cI am very grateful for the kind gesture you have shown towards this school and me. As you can see, I can now move about freely in my wheelchair. I want to encourage people to strive and work hard to achieve anything they want for themselves and not use disability as an excuse. I call on other entities to come and also add up to the great things that others have done for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Christ the King of Kings School which started operating in 1995 with only three students, now has over 140 students. The school has nine classrooms that accommodate students up to class six.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, CAL bank limited also\u00a0donated furniture and assisted in renovating the school.<\/p>\n

Representatives of the bank were in the school\u00a0to climax their project with an inauguration ceremony.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Citi News<\/strong>, the project coordinator for CAL bank, Mr Frank Amoanim said his outfit was touched by the trying efforts of the founder hence, their resolve to take up the project and help them.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have been able to renovate the school and provided them with furniture and painted the whole block. This was at a cost of about 40, 000 Ghana Cedis and we hope that this partnership will go a long way to help the students in the community to help them build a brighter future for themselves,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
