Kpassa (O/R), Nov. 09, GNA – Mr John Kwabena Oti Bless, the Member of Parliament (MP) for Nkwanta North Constituency, has cut sod for the construction of a three-unit classroom block for Kpassa Junior High School (B) in the Oti Region.
The sod-cutting jointly done with Mr Isaiah Kudjoe Dordoe, the District Chief Executive (DCE) for the area, is aimed at addressing inadequate classroom accommodation and overcrowding, to improve the teaching and learning environment for beneficiaries.
Speaking at the sod-cutting ceremony, Mr Oti Bless said the provision of adequate educational infrastructure was essential to improving academic performance and ensuring quality education for pupils in the district.
He said the new facility would help ease the pressure on existing classroom space and provide learners with a more conducive environment for effective teaching and learning.
The MP urged the contractor to ensure timely delivery of the project without compromising quality and professional construction standards.
He set the end of January as the target completion date and called on residents of Kpassa to support the successful execution of the project by protecting construction materials and preventing theft or vandalism.
Mr Oti Bless stressed the need for community ownership and cooperation to ensure that the facility served its intended purpose and benefited generations of learners.
Mr Dordoe, the DCE, reaffirmed the District Assembly’s commitment to completing outstanding development projects, particularly those aimed at improving access to essential public services.
He said the Assembly would closely monitor the construction process to ensure that the contractor complied with the approved technical specifications, quality standards and project requirements.
The DCE assured residents that the appropriate technical officers would undertake regular inspections to assess the progress and quality of work.
He said the Assembly remained committed to providing educational infrastructure that would enhance teaching and learning outcomes and support the development of human capital in the district.
The project forms part of ongoing efforts to improve educational infrastructure and create better learning opportunities for pupils in the Nkwanta North District.
