The paramount Chief of the Aflao Traditional area, Torgbui Adzonugaga Amenya Fiti, has given the government a four month ultimatum to open the e-block community day senior high school which has stalled since 2016.
The ¢9 million project which was part of some 200 classroom blocks the erstwhile Mahama administration started was supposed to have some 26 classrooms attached and 5 departments including a science block.
Torgbui Adzonugaga Amenya Fiti speaking with the Minority side of the Education Committee who toured the uncompleted school buildings in the Ketu South constituency says, government’s approach to education is appalling.
“After senior high school education, the next degree that my people have to do is to go to border and go and do kayayo, no school.
“The only school that we have is the RC Senior High School that belongs to the Catholic Mission Minor Seminary. So this thick population have no place to go and people sit down in that big hall called parliament and not thinking about Aflao, a place after the Tema Harbour , the next revenue generation is from the Aflao border.
“I had to push the former President Mahama for the structure to be constructed over there. I had to be running from here to Accra begging.
“Should we beg for education?”

Why didn't u give the ex president mahama ultimatum to complete the construction within 4months if its so easy.... Better still u can complete the building yourself if u think its bn abandoned...
The government should try as soon as possible to complete this project. I will also plead with the Chief to exercise a bit of patience though I sympathise with his frustration with the abandonment of the school. As His Majesty Togbe Afede said when the ex president paid a courtesy call to him on Monday.The politics should be over, let us come together and build our dear country together.
I am disappointed in FITI. 4 months and nothings happens what can you do? instead of using your royalty to lobby well you are there playing politics. infact you are a disgrace to royalty.
