Mr Wilberforce Owusu-Ansah, Atwima-Mponua District Chief Executive, has appealed to parents and guardians to take advantage of the school feeding programme and the capitation grant to enroll their children in school.He said any parent and guardian found trafficking and engaging children in intensive labour would be dealt with.Mr Owusu-Ansah was inaugurating a GH¢35,000 (350 million cedis) kitchen and dinning hall for Addaikrom Primary School, one of the school free feeding schools in the district last Friday.Mr Owusu-Ansah said the district assembly in collaboration with the government would soon open more free feeding schools in addition to the existing two in the district.He appealed to staff working in the kitchen as well as officials in-charge of the programme to desist from diverting food items meant for the programme.He urged parents to invest their resources in educating their children instead of spending lavishly on social activities especially funerals.The DCE warned the contractor working on the Addaikrom feeder road to speed up work to ensure free movement of people and goods to the urban centres.Source: GNA
