Lawra MP commissions modern KG block for Zukpire community

Lawyer Bede A. Ziedeng, Member of Parliament for Lawra, commissioned a modern kindergarten (KG) block for the Zukpire community in the Lawra constituency of the Upper West region. The MP stated, "It is with great joy, humility, and a deep sense of responsibility that I stand before you today to commission the new kindergarten school block for Zukpire."

The project was constructed for GHS 219,885 and funded through the MP's share of the Ghana Education Trust Fund (GETFund). Over 100 kindergarten pupils in the Zukpire community will now have access to a conducive learning environment. Bede Anwotaazuma Ziedeng emphasized that the facility is a testament to his commitment to laying a strong educational foundation for the youth in his constituency. Over 118 tertiary students have been supported with more than GHS 215,000 this term alone, bringing his total educational expenditure in the constituency since 2021 to over GHS 600,000. The Lawra Municipal Chief Executive, Cecilia Soyele Nuratu, lauded the collaborative effort that brought the project to fruition. The Chief of Zukpire, Naa Baabornubor Tang Zaataanomor III, described the facility as a realised dream and urged the community to take full ownership of the school.

Bede Ziedeng announced his intention to commission five new mechanised boreholes in the area soon to improve water access. He will cut sod for the construction of a new KG school block for the Tampier community in the next few weeks.
