The first spot position brought immense joy to Mr. Boakye Amponsah, affectionately known as “OgaLee,” as the Kumawu Education Committee Chairperson. His delight exemplified the commitment and hard work he has been investing into the Kumawu Education Department and the District at large. Mr. Boakye pledged that the success at Effiduase would not be the end, but a stepping stone toward a stronger and well-prepared showing at the Presbytery level. He assured all stakeholders of even more thorough preparation as the ultimate contest in Asante Mampong approaches.

Seth Duodu Abedi, the Presbytery Education Director, and several dedicated teachers who trained and supported the contestants. The gathering also drew chairpersons from various educational committees, who came together in a show of unity and support for Presbyterian academic excellence.
