Nabdam MP commences construction of KG Block at Nkusiezie

Excitement filled the air in Nkusiezie as community members, chiefs, and local leaders gathered to witness a significant milestone in the area’s educational journey.

The Nabdam Member of Parliament, Dr. Mark Kurt Nawaane, stood before the gathering to commission the construction of a new two-unit kindergarten block, a facility complete with an office, storeroom, five-seater KVIP toilets, and two-unit gender-friendly urinals.

Dr. Nawaane, in his address, highlighted the far-reaching impact of the project, linking it to former President Mahama's educational policy. "This project falls in line with President Mahama's vision to increase the number of pupils attending kindergarten. We all know the importance of early childhood education; it is during these formative years that children develop essential skills. We teach them how to speak, write, read, sing, and even instruct them in our local language, nurturing their cognitive and social abilities."

He emphasized that research shows children who benefit from quality kindergarten education tend to excel as they move through primary, secondary, and even tertiary levels. "President Mahama is committed to kindergarten education, and that is why we've allocated about 10 percent of the common fund towards educational projects such as this."

Dr. Nawaane extended his gratitude to the assembly for championing the policy, and heaped praise on the contractor for delivering quality work. "You can see the good work that has been done," he noted, inviting the young contractor to stand and be recognized by the crowd. "I also want to thank the chief and people of the community for embracing this project. Community acceptance and cooperation are what make successful implementation possible."

He concluded by assuring the community that maintenance of the facility would be a priority, so that generations of children would benefit from a safe and welcoming learning environment.

The event marked not just the commissioning of a building, but the start of brighter educational prospects for the youngest members of Nkusiezie.

Meanwhile, the contractor of the project, Mr. Jacob Azumah of Winmailes Company Ltd, expressed satisfaction with the support he received from the assembly and community members. According to him, he was able to meet the construction deadline because of the community's support and cooperation.

The event was honoured by opinion leaders, assembly officials led by the DCE, and GES officials, all of whom commended the initiative and pledged their continued commitment to the advancement of education in Nkusiezie.
