Corporate bodies calls for more investment in education

Kumasi, Sept 19, GNA – Corporate bodies have been asked to contribute resources to the development of educational infrastructure in the country.

Mr Peter Narh, Managing Director of Everpure Ghana Limited, producers of Everpure purified drinking water, who made the call, said education was the only medium through, which the nation could harness the potentials of the youth, create wealth and reduce poverty.

He was speaking to journalists at the Manhyia Palace in Kumasi after he presented a cheque for GH¢2,000.00 water dispensers, 80 cartons of Everpure bottled water and exotic drinks to authorities of the Otumfuo Education Fund.

Mr Narh called for effective partnership between organisations and government to create the right conditions for academic work.

Mr Ernest Saahene of the office of the Asantehene, who received the cheque and items, thanked the company for the gesture.
