Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has donated laptops to the Akropong School for the Blind in the Eastern Region of Ghana.
As part of his constituency-focused nationwide campaign tour in the Eastern Region, Dr. Bawumia took the opportunity to commission a new ICT laboratory and presented 104 laptops to both special needs teachers and learners at the school.
Reports suggest that the donation of these laptops is part of Dr. Bawumia’s broader effort to enhance educational resources across Ghana. He emphasized that the laptops are intended to improve teaching and learning activities at the Akropong School for the Blind, particularly in areas such as research and digital literacy. This initiative aligns with Ghana’s ongoing efforts to meet the technological demands of the 21st century and equip students with the necessary skills to thrive in a rapidly evolving digital world, he said.
In his address, Dr. Bawumia highlighted the importance of integrating modern technology into education to ensure that students with special needs are not left behind in the digital age. He expressed his belief that access to these technological tools would provide the students with valuable opportunities for hands-on practice and learning, thus enhancing their overall educational experience.
The management of the Akropong School for the Blind received the laptops with immense joy and gratitude. The school’s administration and staff expressed their deep appreciation for Dr. Bawumia’s generous contribution, which they believe will make a significant difference in the educational journey of their learners.
