‘Pojoba’ donates customised face shields to school
The Pope John Senior High and Minor Seminary Old Students Association (Pojoba) has donated 200 pieces of customised face shield to the school.
The item which cost about GH¢ 6,000.00 was made available through the voluntary contributions of individuals of the various year groups.
The President of the Association, Mr Isaac Abe Duah said the students were complaining of not hearing their tutors clearly when they (teachers) use the nose masks while teaching in the classroom.
He again said some of the tutors felt uncomfortable using the nose masks to teach for long hours.
Mr Duah said, this prompted the old students to design the face shields for both the students, teachers and non-teaching staff for easy communication in and outside the classroom.
He said the future of the students was very critical in this hard time of the pandemic and, therefore, necessary that all their put their hands on deck to help them come out successfully.
The President urged all the students to continue to put their trust in God, never waiver in faith, and make good use of the little time left and the Almighty God would help them come out with flying colours.
Mr Duah advised them to adhere to all the safety protocols to save them from contracting the virus.
“I encourage you all to hold your head’s high and know that God is in control of your future,” he sermonised.
The headmistress, Mrs Benedicta Foli received the items and thanked the Old Boys for their swift intervention.
She assured the Old Boys that the shields would be used as directed and it was her hope that all the students would pass their final examination to the glory of God.

The Ghana Police Service has arrested three (3) suspects in connection with a case of possession of narcotic drugs and engaging in prohibited drug-related activities within the Accra metropolis.
On April 10, 2026, the Special Operations Assistant to the Inspector General of Police received intelligence that a group of individuals were planning to engage in the sale of suspected narcotic drugs at Dzorwulu in Accra.
A surveillance operation was mounted and on 11th April 2026, a Police team proceeded to the area and arrested two suspects, Bright Ayivor and Ifeanyi Ijeoba.
The suspects were found in possession of twenty-two (22) compressed substances suspected to be cocaine, which were being prepared for sale to a prospective buyer.
Further interrogation of the suspects led to the identification of a third suspect, Kwabena Botwe as a key figure in the drug trade.
A follow-up operation at Caprice resulted in his arrest after Police mounted surveillance during a planned transaction involving proceeds from the sale of the suspected drugs.
The suspect later led Police to his residence at Greda Estates, where a search resulted in the retrieval of an amount of GHc400,000 and a counting machine.
According to the police, during the operation, he attempted to bribe the arresting officers with an additional GHc420,000, which has been retained as evidence.
All the suspects are currently in Police custody assisting investigations and will be put before the court.
