Badukrom Chief presents assorted books to alma mater

Mr Jonathan Duodu Adjei, an old student of Pope John Senior High and Junior Seminary, has donated assorted books worth thousands of US dollars to his alma mater.

Mr Duodu, who is a member of 1981 year group and also the Chief of Badukrom and Akwamuhene of Akyem Bosome Traditional area but lives in the United States of America, said the books were his personal contributions to the development of education of the students.

The books, which included, computer science books, assorted literature, chemistry, mechanics, industrial text books, public administration and medicine, were presented last Monday.

Mr Duodu advised the students to study to show themselves approved in their final examination.

He indicated that there was nothing on earth which is easy but with determination, discipline and hard work, they can reach their set objectives in life.

He shared his life experience when he was a student and appealed to them to respect and obey whatever their teachers would tell them. 

Mr Duodu pledged to bring more items to the school.

He was accompanied by Mr Kwame Djamgba, former Pojoba President; Dr Kwaku Agbesi, newly elected Pojoba President; Mr Cephas Wiafe Nimako, Mr Francis Kwabena Ohene and Mr Ohemeng Baah.

The School Prefect, Foster Tetteh Quarshie, thanked Mr Duodu for the kind gesture and also pledged on behalf of the students, especially the final year students, not to repeat the mistakes of their predecessors.

The Headmaster, Rev. Fr Ben Ohene Opoku, expressed gratitude to the donor and appealed to the other old students to come on board.

He thanked the year groups who are also doing various projects to raise the image of their alma mater.
