Mr Aidoo-Mensah urged the two communities to thrash out the issue as early as possible for work to begin on the JHS. Mr Clement Nana Addai, Adaa-Ngyiresi Circuit Supervisor of the Ghana Education Service, urged parents to invest in the education of their children and not to rely on the government for everything for the children. Nana Abekah II, Chief of Fawomanye, appealed to the DCE to help the school to benefit from the School Feeding Programme.
