The newly inaugurated facility includes a modern three-classroom block, office spaces, and a 10-seater washroom, providing a significant boost to teaching and learning in the community.

Speaking at the commissioning ceremony, the Acting Chief Executive Officer of Happy Sunshine Company Limited, Patrick Amoaku Mensah, underscored the importance of the initiative, noting that it represents a key pillar of the company’s Corporate Social Responsibility agenda.

He explained that the gesture forms part of the company’s charitable initiative—the “La Vonce 1 Cedi 1 Carton Project,” an ongoing campaign under Lavonce Tomatomix, a brand of Happy Sunshine Company Limited. Under the initiative, the company donates GHC 1 to the Ghanaian education sector for every carton or bucket of its tomato mix purchased.

The fund supports the construction of educational infrastructure, improvement of learning conditions, and the provision of scholarships for brilliant but needy students across the country.

Beyond the school block, Happy Sunshine Company Limited further extended support to pupils by donating 300 school bags, laptops, and footballs to enhance both academic activities and extracurricular development.

The Chief of Kyekyewere, Barimah Okunyini Jebi Kwame Ababio II, expressed profound appreciation to the company for what he described as a transformative contribution to the community.

The Headmistress of Kyekyewere Presby School, Gertrude Yeboah Ayim, also conveyed heartfelt gratitude, applauding the company’s commitment to improving education and supporting young learners.

According to eyewitnesses, the truck, which was traveling from Accra towards Suhum, attempted to overtake a fuel tanker but lost control and fell on its side in the middle of the road.

Residents quickly rescued the driver and his mate and rushed them to the hospital.

However, as they attempted to offload the goods, the truck suddenly caught fire and was engulfed in flames.

An eyewitness recounted, “This morning, while heading to work, I saw people gathered around the truck. Its tire had burst, and we noticed smoke coming out. Before we could get close, the truck burst into flames. Fortunately, the driver and his mate were taken to the hospital.”

The suspect, a hardware seller lives with his wife and three children including the deceased at Kyekyewere near Asuboi along the Accra to Kumasi Highway in the Ayensuano District of the Eastern Region.

According to reports, the suspect frequently beats his wife and children but his violent behaviour went unchecked as the community feared his wrath.

A resident who confirmed the incident explained that last Thursday, Justice was seen carrying his severely beaten child into a taxi.

He then took the child to the Nsawam Government Hospital, after he fell unconscious where the medical staff confirmed that he died on arrival.

The motive behind the severe beating remains unclear, though it is noted that Wisdom did not attend school and was often confined to the house.

The boy reportedly defied his father’s orders to stay indoors, which may have led to the fatal beating.

However, the Assembly Member for the area, George Oboubi, decided to follow up on the child’s condition.

When questioned, Oga claimed the boy had died of malaria and was in the mortuary.
He later changed his story, admitting that he had buried the child in a public cemetery.

Oga’s inconsistent accounts raised suspicion, prompting Oboubi to involve the police.

Upon investigation, it was discovered that Oga had buried his son without a coffin, allegedly paying and convincing the Nsawam cemetery workers to do so.

Mr Obuobi informed the Police who went to arrest him and later stormed the cemetery to exhume Wisdom’s body.

Meanwhile, the suspect as gathered will be paraded before a Court in Nsawam on Monday to face the law.

His wife had since fled from the town with her two children to an unknown location.
