Manso-Adubia (Ash), Oct. 14, GNA – The Ghana Muslim Mission in the Amansie South district, has appealed to the government for financial support to establish a Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) school to equip young people with practical skills for employment and self-reliance.
The appeal was made during the Mission’s Third Annual District Conference held at the Manso Adubia in the Ashanti Region.
The conference was held on the theme: “Bringing Hands Together to Sow the Seed of Development.”
Alhaji Issahak Issifu, the District Imam and host of the conference, said the Mission had already secured land for the proposed TVET School, but required financial assistance to help develop the necessary infrastructure.
He appealed to the government and other development partners to support the project, saying it would provide young people in the district with opportunities to acquire practical skills for employment and entrepreneurship.
Alhaji Issifu said the establishment of the school would contribute to skills development and help address unemployment among the youth.
He expressed the hope that the government would consider the Mission’s appeal and support efforts to establish the facility.
Mr Mansuru Mohammed, Secretary of the Ghana Muslim Mission at Manso Adubia, said the organisation remained committed to promoting development and improving the welfare of people in the community.
He said the completion of the proposed TVET School would enable young people to acquire employable skills to become self-reliant and contribute meaningfully to the development of their communities.
Mr Mohammed noted that access to technical and vocational training would create opportunities for the youth to establish their own businesses and improve their livelihoods.
He, therefore, called for collective support from stakeholders to ensure the successful establishment of the school.
Nana Adusei Kwadanpim II, the Gyaasehene of Manso Adubia, also appealed to the government to prioritise the rehabilitation of deplorable roads in the area to improve accessibility and support the development of the proposed TVET School.
He said improved road infrastructure would make it easier for students, teachers and other stakeholders to access the facility and also attract more people to the district.
