The gesture marks the fourth consecutive year of his generous contributions aimed at supporting students' academic success.
Annual ritual
Speaking after the donation, Mr Yakubu emphasised the importance of education in community development and urged the students to be studious and ensure they passed their final exams with distinction.
According to him, he was motivated to assist individuals' academic pursuits because, with education, "One can achieve his or her dreams, hence I urge you not to joke with your books.
"Even though you are going to sit alone and write your papers, remember the entire community is with you in spirit" he assured the candidates. I, on behalf of my Unit Committee Members and my entire team, wish you all the best,” he told the candidates.
Commendation
The Assemblyman commended a philanthropist, Chairman Ibrahim Kalushar, for assisting his outfit to ensure the schools received the mathematical sets. For her part, the Headteacher of Fireamour ‘2’ Basic School, Rosina Serwaa Akoto, expressed gratitude to the assemblyman.
She urged the students to be motivated by the gesture and make the school proud as their predecessors did.
