I wish to use this opportunity to wish all final year pupils in the Cape Coast Metropolitan Area who are sitting for the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) which starts on Monday 5th June, 2017, the very best of luck.
I congratulate all of you for your dedication and hard work throughout your period of basic school education and having come this far. This is the period of reckoning. Myself and all stakeholders of education in the metropolis strongly believe in your ability to perform creditably in the examinations. We trust that, your teachers, parents and well-wishers have over the period prepared you adequately for the task ahead.
Let me use this opportunity to draw the attention of parents and teachers to motivate and psyche their children throughout this period.
Please be mindful of the Free Senior High School (SHS) Programme which begins next academic year and learn hard to come out with flying colours and be part of the Free SHS programme.
Accept my congratulations!
……..Signed……
