The Vice Minister of Education, Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, will sponsor 30 engineering students from the Bosomtwe constituency at the University of Mines and Technology (UMaT), Tarkwa, in the next academic year.
According to Dr Adutwum, who has also retained his seat as a Member of Parliament for the constituency, the gesture is in line with his long-standing goal of obtaining 100 engineers and doctors each from the constituency before leaving Parliament.
“My office has taken care of the admission, enrollment and accommodation of these 30 new students until they complete their various courses.
“This feat is part of strategies and processes (already started) for the fulfillment of one of my political resolutions: to obtain, at least, 100 engineers and doctors from each one of my constituency by the time I leave office as a deputy.
“It is also a way of thanking the Lord for how far He has brought me, seeing my story of how I can hardly go to high school due to poverty; and also to help others who might not have the opportunity to realize their dreams and potentials if they are not given a hand ”, he announced on Facebook.
He added: In addition to these thirty newly admitted future engineers, who will soon be trained at UMaT, there are other students taking medicine, engineering, education, nursing and other courses at different levels of tertiary education, both locally and abroad, courtesy of my office”.
