A medical doctor, Dr. Gabriel Asumeng, has donated learning materials valued at over GH¢20,000 to the debating club of Ola Girls’ Senior High School at Kenyasi No. 2 in the Ahafo Region.
The donation, which included a projector, smart television, computer, projector screen, internet router, whiteboard, and several reading materials, is aimed at enhancing the teaching and learning experience of students in the club.
Speaking to Adom News during the presentation ceremony, Dr. Asumeng said he was informed by the school’s management about the lack of essential materials for the debating club, a challenge that had hindered their performance in national competitions.
“Ola Girls’ SHS is one of the best schools in the country, so hearing that the debating club lacked learning materials was quite worrying. I decided to step in and support them so they can perform better,” he explained.
The Patron of the Debating Club and Head of the Languages Department, Prosper Mensah Aforvor, expressed deep appreciation to Dr. Asumeng for the gesture.
He noted that the new materials would significantly boost the club’s academic performance and help students sharpen their public speaking and critical thinking skills.
“Over the years, the club has not performed as expected due to a lack of learning materials. This donation will go a long way to transform our preparations and boost our confidence in competitions,” he said.
The school’s management also expressed gratitude to Dr. Asumeng for his commitment to supporting education and urged other old students and professionals to emulate his example.
