While admonishing them to take their academic work serious, he urged them not to be discouraged by their family challenges.<\/p>\n

Programmes Manager and co-host of Traffic Avenue, Jessica Opare Soforo, told the students that they should be driven by their passion to serve and not just money.<\/p>\n

Umaru Sanda Amadu, host of Citi FM\u2019s<\/strong> news analysis programme, The Big Issue<\/strong>, said one\u2019s family background cannot hinder his or her development if he or she perseveres and is determined to succeed.<\/p>\n

\"easter-orphan-project-2017-basco-18\"<\/p>\n

Kojo Akoto Boateng, the co-host of the Citi Breakfast Show<\/strong> said that, even though academic qualification was not a guarantee for success, it was important for the students to perform well and pass their final examinations; thus the Basic and second cycle examinations.<\/p>\n

In 2013, the station through the support of its listeners and corporate Ghana, built a vocational training center for BASCO<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, and the centre is intended to cater for training in carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, hairdressing, and masonry.<\/p>\n

\"easter-orphan-project-2017-basco-6\"<\/p>\n

Citi FM<\/strong> with the support of its listeners and various corporate organizations, made a cash donation, and also presented items worth thousands of Ghana cedis to the school.<\/p>\n

Some of the items included toiletries, maize, rice, oil, mattresses, water, books, toys, biscuits, clothes, beverages among other things.<\/p>\n

The company has also presented items and money to the two other orphanages, Mama Laadi<\/a><\/strong><\/span> in the Upper East Region, and\u00a0the Handivangelism Orphanage at Haatso in Accra, as part of the 2017 event.<\/p>\n
