Odeefoo Oteng Korankye II, the Chief of Berekuso, Founder and President of the Foundation, in a statement advised the students who are writing the BECE to avoid examination malpractices, which could thwart their efforts.
He said the Fund was guided by the mission to support educational achievement for children towards a brighter future for communities.
