Welcoming Dr Bawumia to Dunkwa-On-Offin on Wednesday, as part of his campaign tour, Nana Kwame Nkrumah II on behalf of the Council, said the Free SHS policy had ensured equal access to senior secondary education for all, and significantly impacted the Denkyira community.
He commended the government for the great job done, saying, “your flagship free SHS policy has brought great relief to the Denkyira community, especially those who could not have afford to send their children to second school.
“Today, all our children go to school for free without any stress on parents and we have many literate young populations, all because of Free SHS”.
The Traditional Council also commended the Akufo-Addo government for bringing developmental projects to the community, including roads, construction of a strategic bridge on-going stadium, and the DRIP equipment for road development.
Expressing its support for Dr Bawumia’s Presidential bid, the Denkyira Traditional Council said the Vice President was blessed adding that “who the Lord has blessed, no one can destroy”.
Dr Bawumia’s visit to the town was met with rare rains and the Traditional Council said it signified blessings.
“The first sign of blessings you have brought to us is the rain. We have not seen the rains here for sometime now, but today that you have been here, God has opened the heavens for the rains to fall to coincide with your visit, which is indeed a sign of blessings. It signifies victory,” he stated.
