Professor Kingsley Nyarko, Member of Parliament for the Kwadaso Constituency and former Deputy Minister for Education (TVET), has commissioned two state-of-the-art Information and Communication Technology (ICT) laboratories in the municipality, reaffirming his unwavering commitment to advancing digital inclusion and educational transformation.
The beneficiary institutions: Atwima Amanfrom Basic School and Central Agric Basic School* each received 15 desktop computers, 16 desks, 32 chairs, as well as a projector and projection screen, significantly enhancing the learning environment and equipping students with essential 21st-century skills.
The commissioning ceremonies, held on Monday, 30 March 2026, brought together traditional authorities, representatives of the Municipal Chief Executive, education officials, teachers, parents, and key stakeholders. Notable among them were the Deputy Municipal Education Director, Mr. Lious Boakye, and Mr. Eric Assibey, representing the Municipal Chief Executive.
Speaking at the event, Madam Abigail Adjei described the ICT laboratory as a historic milestone for the school, opening new frontiers for teaching, learning, and innovation. She emphasized that the facility will not only modernize instructional delivery but also significantly improve educational outcomes. She further commended the Member of Parliament for his consistent support, highlighting his recent donation of library books which has complemented the school’s now fully equipped library.
At Atwima Amanfrom Basic School, Headmistress Madam Julieth Serwaa Boateng lauded the intervention as transformative, noting that the school, despite over 65 years of existence, had never benefited from an ICT laboratory. She praised Prof. Nyarko’s sustained commitment to the institution, recalling his earlier support in stocking their library with essential learning materials.
Addressing the gatherings, Prof. Nyarko explained that the intervention was a direct response to appeals from the school authorities. He observed that, notwithstanding their long-standing contributions to education in the municipality, both schools had been deprived of critical ICT infrastructure for decades. He stressed that in an increasingly digital world, equitable access to technology is not a luxury but a necessity for national development.
“No nation can achieve meaningful progress while its young people are denied access to the tools of the modern age,” he asserted.
Prof. Nyarko further reaffirmed his dedication to expanding educational infrastructure across the constituency, with a particular focus on bridging the digital divide in underserved communities. He noted that the newly commissioned facilities mark the fourth ICT laboratory delivered under his leadership within five years and assured constituents of even more impactful interventions in the months ahead.
