The Ghanaian Government, through its Ministry of Education, has been awarded a $3million education infrastructure grant from the Abdul Samad Rabiu Africa Initiative (ASR Africa). This grant will be drawn from ASR Africa’s annual $100million Africa Fund for Social Development and Renewal and was announced during the presentation of the letter of award to the Ghanaian Government at the Jubilee House in Accra, recently.

Speaking at the event in Accra, Ghana's capital, Udoh Ubon, the Managing Director of ASR Africa commended the President of Ghana, Nana Akufo-Addo for his sincere commitment to developing the educational system at all levels in Ghana. According to Ubon, this award was significant because Ghana is also the first African country beneficiary of an ASR Africa grant after Nigeria. “ASR Africa is an initiative of industrialist and philanthropist, Abdul Samad Rabiu, who has decided to give back to the African continent to promote sustainable health care, education and social development. Whilst reviewing potential national beneficiaries for the African aspect of the grant, we were encouraged by the strides made by the Ghanaian government in Education. We believe this $3million ASR Africa education infrastructure grant will go a long way in ing the eradication of “schools under trees” across the country whilst developing primary education infrastructure across the country.

Receiving the ASR Africa delegation on behalf of the Government, Hon. Akosua Frema Osei-Opare, Chief of Staff in the Office of the President, thanked ASR Africa for the award of the $3million grant. According to her, the President Nana Akufo-Addo istration is committed to improving the quality of education and educational infrastructure across the country and this grant is a welcome development which would accelerate the work already being done.

She further added that the government will work together with ASR Africa based on the agreed Mutual ability Framework to come up with a programme to build several primary schools across Ghana under the grant. She further praised the Chairman of BUA Group and ASR Africa, Alhaji Abdul Samad Rabiu, for his commitment to the African continent in business and philanthropy.

In his response, Udoh said "Abdul Samad Rabiu and ASR Africa will remain an active partner in solving developmental issues across the continent. Ghana is just the start and more African countries are set to benefit this year."

The brainchild of African Industrialist, Philanthropist and Chairman of BUA Group, Abdul Samad Rabiu, the Abdul Samad Rabiu Africa Initiative (ASR Africa) was established in 2021 to provide sustainable, impact-based homegrown solutions to developmental issues affecting Health, Education and Social Development within Africa .

The president of Ghana is truly a leader worth emulating. Unlike the dot originator

Nigeria has lost it all. Buhari has reduced this nation to nothing.

Nigerian politicians would wish these funds came to Nigeria instead.

Ghana - 2

Nigeria - Nil

Nigeria the self acclaimed giant of Africa in the mud........ Thumbs (A country where rule of law is respected and protected at all cost), keep making Africa proud.


If that grant were to be given to Nigeria, instead of the useless politicians to use it in developing education as expected, they would rather loot it and use the same money to marry underaged uneducated girls.

.

Ehyaaaa...

Ghana is growing faster in economy than Nigeria.

I see new Giants of Africa emerging.


The only thing wey dey give Nigeria mouth na our population and oil, after that, nothing.

But when it comes to bashing, you go see us dey bash countries that are doing better.

Go South Africa na or Go Kenya, there are not as populous as Nigeria, Dem no get oil reach Nigeria but they are developing at a steady rate while Nigeria is regressing.

Last last, all of us na chest beaters.

Iranu.

Noted

Very happy for them,

This Ghana again??



Wettin happen na only Dem dy Africa

Oh wow

s

call it anything it is normal CSR from BUA to a country of Operation or proposed Operation.

I read comments and i saw people dont know it is our own BUA who gives more than that to Nigeria

The new Giants of Af***a

Most private interventions are channeled to avoid wastage and promote productivity...

Most sane organizations shy away from giving grant to "corrupt istrations",

it is of no use to dash the ocean more water

If this fund is ever invested in Nigeria, just in a twinkle of an eye, you may not know the whereabouts of the fund. Then you will be seeing different headlines like mosquitoes sucked educational fund and so on. If it is possible for a snake to swallow money in Nigeria, my brethren, anything is possible ooo.

It is not just between Goverment and twitter. Every sensible organization will be avoiding direct investment in the country.

And with good reason too....you don't just wake up one morning and deny hundreds of organizations access to a major Information dessemination platform just because your ego was hurt.

Stop sounding like daft illiterates that are clearly too lazy to read

The $3m (over N1.5 Billion) was freely donated to Ghana by a Nigerian of FULANI extraction.

I wonder how that shelves seller wants to get customers with such lazy reasoning.

The brainchild of African Industrialist, Philanthropist and Chairman of BUA Group, Abdul Samad Rabiu, the Abdul Samad Rabiu Africa Initiative (ASR Africa) was established in 2021 to provide sustainable, impact-based homegrown solutions to developmental issues affecting Health, Education and Social Development within Africa .

Another Fulani Entrepreneur helping Africa grow alongside Aliko Dangote

Kudos to Abdulsamad Rabiu and other Nigerians painting the country in bright colours on a continental and global scale.

$100m annually to African Development. Very selfless and highly impressive.

Another answer to the bigots that claim that Fulanis aren't doing Nigeria proud and contributing to African progress.

Na to promote rubbish and Sponsor BBNaija our Elites sabi

Some don't even know that BUA is a Nigerian and a Fulani they love to hate...

Good meanwhile the dullard is borrowing left right and centre.

God! Some people are stinking rich. Where these people dey see all this money?
