December 12, 2018.

Yesterday, I joined Hon. Janet Mensah, MCE GA East and Madam Bernice Ofori, Municipal Education Director, the Regional Director of Education and some Teachers at the Presbyterian Women's Center, Abokobi for the Ghana Teacher Prize 2018, Ga East Municipal Edition, which was under the theme, 'Quality Education - Quality Teacher.'

Teachers offer a great service to our nation, and are the fulcrum around which, the lives of our children are built from a tender age, so a day to Celebrate them and their efforts and contributions is the least we can do to show appreciation.

The success or otherwise of Government's Free Senior High School Education is dependent on the effort and contributions of our teachers. Government, in putting the Teacher First as part of this program has restored the Teacher training allowances as promised and begun processes to pay the outstanding allowances of Teachers.

In all, 12 Hardworking Teachers within the municipality were awarded for their hard work. I encouraged them to continually work hard and called on other teachers to also give their best to merit the awards next year.
