The Campaign Team for the Flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has hinted that the governing party has begun the construction of a senior high school dedicated solely to the creative industry in Kwadaso in the Ashanti region.
In a press briefing held in Accra, Dennis Miracles Aboagye, Director of Communications for the Dr. Bawumia campaign, asserted that the vision of the party’s flagbearer is to enhance education in all aspects through technology-driven, however, the creative industry cannot be left out.
“Our commitment to the growth of the creative arts industry is also evident through the ongoing construction of the very first Senior High School in Ghana dedicated solely to the industry, in Kwadaso, in the Ashanti Region. It is currently seventy percent (70%) complete, and ready to admit first-year students,” Miracle Aboagye said.
He highlighted that, in terms of upholding culture and other genres in the creative art industry, there is no place like the Kumasi citing Kumawood as an example.
“For us in the NPP, there could be no more fitting place for the siting of the first of many of such edifices than the ancient, vibrant city of Kumasi, famed for its rich pedigree of culture, music, dance, folklore, and drama.”
Miracle Aboagye disclosed that the Bawumia government when voted into power in 2025, intends to build more senior high schools designated for the creative art industry across all regions.
“Government intends to construct more of such schools across the country, so that young people, from every nook and cranny, can gain access to this kind of specialized education to improve and hone their skills in the creative arts.”
