24 SHS IN CENTRAL REGION GET BUSES (PAGE 21)

TWENTY-FOUR senior high schools (SHS) in the Central Region have benefited from buses donated by the government to ease the transportation problems of schools throughout the country.
The Central Regional Minister, Nana Ato Arthur, who handed over the keys to the buses to Mr Ebo G. Edzie, the Deputy Central Regional Director in charge of Finance and Administration of the Ghana Education Service in Cape Coast, expressed regret that some of the drivers who went for the vehicles stole radio cassette systems in the cars before they were sent to their destinations.
Nana Ato Arthur said investigations would be conducted into the case and the drivers who would be found culpable would be dealt with.
He entreated the beneficiary schools to use the vehicles judiciously and maintain them to ease the transportation problems of students and staff of their schools.
Mrs Anastasia Okyere of the Regional Education office, commended the government for providing the buses to ease the transportation problem of the schools.
Among the beneficiary institutions are the Efutu, Mankessim, Obrakyere, Nyakrom, Assin North, Mando, Senya, Eguafo, Enyan Denkyira, Abakrampa senior high schools, the Komenda Senior High (Technical) and the Gomoa Senior High (Technical).
