Twifo Atti-Morkwa District: "One Hot Meal" Turns Two Per A Day At Twifo Kayireku-Ashire


Twifo Atti-Morkwa District: "One Hot Meal" Turns Two Per A Day At Twifo Kayireku-Ashire


Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in his 15th briefing on the covid-19 pandemic on August 16, disclosed that the final year students who are preparing to write their exit examination including the teaching staff would be given one hot meal a day from 24th August, 2020. 


The story is conspicuously different in the Kayireku-Ashire electoral area in the Twifo Atti-morkwa district of the central region. There are five Junior High Schools in the electoral area which include Kayireku D/A JHS, Nkohunuho D/A JHS, Dorkordorkor Victory preparatory school, Otukrom D/A JHS and Ashire D/A JHS respectively. 


Except for Kayireku D/A JHS which enjoyed the full fulfilment of the President's promise, the other four schools did not receive their share of the one hot meal on the day one of the implementation.


However, all the five schools in the electoral area have been graciously receiving two hot meals on daily basis since the Wednesday 26th of August. 


Two matrons have been appointed to prepare and supply the food to the various schools in the area whereby each of them has been assigned to a particular jurisdiction but the compliance has been the shortcoming.


The two matrons are madam Christiana Asamoah who is assigned to prepare and supply food to the schools without the school feeding programme in the kayireku-Ashire electoral area and madam Angelina Nyarkoah, the zonal school feeding programme coordinator doubles as the Twifo Attimorkwa constituency women organizer for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) who is also assigned to prepare and supply food to the schools with the feeding programme but she has chosen to serve both jurisdictions.

The the Assin Obobakokrowa D/A Basic School has not seen any major rehabilitation since its establishment in 1970s.
