Mfantsiman Girls to Host 65th Speech & Prize-Giving Day

 


Mfantsiman Girls Senior High School is set to host the 65th Speech and Prize-giving Day and Homecoming from 14th to 16th March at Saltpond in the Central region.

This year’s Speech and Prize-giving day is being hosted by the 2000-year group, and over 5000 old girls and students of Mfantsiman Girls are expected to attend the programme.

Under the theme, ‘Leveraging New Media Technology to Optimize Girl Child Education,’ the event will emphasize the importance of harnessing technology to address the unique challenges faced by girls in accessing quality education, particularly in marginalized communities. By leveraging new media technology, we can create inclusive, interactive, and engaging learning environments that empower girls to reach their full potential.

The theme will also serve as a call to action, encouraging students, educators, and stakeholders to explore innovative ways to integrate technology into girl child education, ultimately driving positive change and promoting a brighter future for all.

In an exclusive interview, the President of Mfantsiman Old Girls' Association (MOGA), Henrietta Opokua Amissah, expressed her enthusiasm for the upcoming 65th Speech and Prize-giving day, saying, "I am excited about this significant event and commend the millennium year group, MOGA 2000, for their meticulous planning and dedication to ensuring a memorable and successful celebration."

According to Amissah, the 65th Speech and Prize-giving day and Homecoming celebration will feature exciting activities, including a career guidance and counselling session to inspire and empower students, a candlelight procession, and a fitness session to promote physical wellness among the students and attendees.

The key highlight of the event will be a grand durbar to be attended by dignitaries, old students, and current students of Mfantsiman Girls and the presentation of awards to deserving students who have excelled in the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) and school examinations, recognizing their outstanding academic achievements. The climax of the celebration will be a thanksgiving service and an inter-house fundraising competition to raise funds for ongoing school projects.

Some dignitaries to grace the occasion include the Honourable Minister of Finance, Dr. Cassiel Ato Baah Forson, Honourable Minister of Gender, Children & Social Protection, Dr. Agnes Naa Momo Lartey and Ambassador Jane Gasu Aheto as the Guests of Honour, Beatrice Dadson, Esq. as the Chairperson, and Petra Aba Asamoah, General Manager, Oduma Solutions Limited, as the Guest Speaker.

Old girls who completed school in 2001 will also be in attendance for the baton-taking ceremony to host the 66th Speech and Prize-giving day next year.

Fitch Solutions retains 2025 growth rate projection at 4.2%

 Fitch Solutions has reaffirmed its projection that Ghana’s economy will expand by 4.2% in 2025. This estimate slightly exceeds the International Monetary Fund’s forecast of 4% and the World Bank’s projection of 3.9%. The UK-based research firm attributes its outlook to historically high gold prices, which are expected to cushion the Ghanaian economy against a global slowdown triggered by rising tariffs. Higher gold prices are anticipated to strengthen government revenue, enhance foreign exchange earnings, and help sustain currency stability. The report also highlights that Ghana is relatively less vulnerable to increasing trade restrictions from the United States, given that its primary exports—gold and crude oil—are not directly affected by the tariffs introduced by President Trump’s administration. Moreover, the US constitutes only about 4% to 5% of Ghana’s total exports. In contrast, Ghana’s trade relations are more heavily oriented toward China and European countries, particul...

BoG injects $20m into FX market to support 11 BDCs

  The Bank of Ghana (BoG) has injected $20 million into the foreign exchange market in the latest round of its forward FX auction targeted at Bulk Oil Distribution Companies (BDCs).

This move reflects the BoG’s continued effort to deepen forex liquidity and safeguard the domestic fuel supply chain against volatility in global energy markets. By directly supplying FX to BDCs, the central bank seeks to ease pressure on the interbank market, guarantee the uninterrupted flow of petroleum products, and mitigate the pass-through effects of exchange rate fluctuations on fuel prices. The $20 million disbursement forms part of a $120 million programme for th...
