The Director of Special Operations at the National Security, Mr. Richard A. Jakpa, has donated 650 mathematical sets to final year Junior High School students in the Daffiama-Bussie-Issa (DBI) District of the Upper West Region.
The donation is to support the preparation of the JSS3 students towards their upcoming Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) and to help them pass well to become good citizens.
Making the donation at Issa, Mr. Jakpa said all the donations he has been making to the district since he assumed office is possible because of the opportunity given to him by His Excellency the President to serve the people of Ghana and the support he has been receiving from the National Security Coordinator, COP Osman Abdul Razak.
He said his focus is to help the students and to help the DBI District improve lives and bring smiles to the faces of the people.
“I wish to commit that I will continue offering this help to the district and all the citizens of this district so long as God gives me life. When God blesses you, you must make sure the blessing goes to humanity. You are alive to serve, you are not alive for yourself. Charity begins at home, so I am focusing on my district to make sure we reduce poverty,” Mr. Jakpa stated.
He made the donation on behalf of His Excellency the President, the National Security Coordinator and all well-meaning Ghanaians.
“So on behalf of His Excellency and the National Security Coordinator and all meaningful Ghanaians, I donate this 650 mathematical sets to the district director of DBI for the JSS3 students in their preparation for their BECE exams so they could pass well and serve this country meaningfully,” he said.
The District Director of Education Pognaa Saadia Gbolo on behalf of the Teachers and students present thanked Mr. Jakpa for his continuous support to education and development in the district.
