The Member of Parliament for Builsa South, Dr. Clement Abas Apaak, has commissioned four new classroom blocks across different communities in the constituency, reaffirming his commitment to improving access to quality education.
The facilities, located in Wiesi, Dogniga, Uwasa Teudema, and Fumbisi Suik, are expected to ease overcrowding in existing schools and provide safe, conducive learning spaces for young children.
Specifically, Wiesi, Dogniga, and Uwasa Teudema each received a 3-unit Kindergarten block funded through GETFund following Dr. Apaak’s advocacy, while the 2-unit Kindergarten block at Fumbisi Suik was personally financed by the legislator.
Separate commissioning ceremonies were held in all four communities, where residents expressed appreciation for the intervention. Representing Dr. Apaak, Constituency Chairman Cerza Akinkang explained that the MP’s personal academic journey strongly influences his dedication to expanding education.
“Dr. Apaak has lived the power of education, and he believes the children of Builsa South deserve the same opportunities. These projects are a reflection of his love for the constituency and his faith in the future of its youth,” Mr. Akinkang stated.
The facilities were officially handed over to the Builsa South District Education Directorate. Receiving them, the District Director of Education, Mr. Richard A. Akum-Nyemi, expressed profound gratitude to the MP on behalf of the Ghana Education Service.
He encouraged parents to take advantage of the new classrooms by enrolling all eligible children when schools reopen on September 2, 2025. He also emphasized the need for communities to safeguard the structures to ensure their longevity.
Community leaders in Wiesi, Dogniga, Uwasa Teudema, and Fumbisi Suik warmly welcomed the projects. They pledged to support maintenance efforts while appealing for complementary interventions such as furniture, teachers’ accommodation, and improved sanitation facilities.
Dr. Apaak, speaking through his representatives, described the commissioning as both a fulfillment of his promise and an expression of his long-standing vision to transform education in Builsa South.
He noted that the combination of official resource mobilization and personal sacrifice reflects his belief that investment in education is the surest path to sustainable development for the constituency.
“These schools are not just buildings; they are investments in the future of Builsa South,” he said.
