T
he story of a restless young man, the story of a
future visionary leader and community
development worker .
I have always seen this trait in Ishmael, and as
mentor, I have been doing what mentors do:
bringing the best out of him. Ishmael who is a
stage performer, rapper and polytechnic
student from northern Ghana is a recipient of
Caprecon scholarship programme. Not long
ago, he visited a community school and was
appalled by the degradation he witnessed. The
students were sitting on the bare floor in
classrooms, walking with bare feet, there was
no furniture to aid learning and something had
to be done.
The Kusanaba primary school, Ghana, Upper
East Region, Bawku West District had no desk
to study and zealous students had to sit on the
floor? And we at Caprecon stepped in.
Working with Ishmael, we were able to get
some benches for the use of these students.
Our next project is making sure they do not go
to school on bare feet. I salute you Ishmael, I
salute your vision and courage. .
We are glad that the students finally have
desks and benches to study. Thanks to Adawi
Ishmael for volunteering with Caprecon to get
this done.
