It is every student’s dream to pass their exams with flying colours and have the chance to progress their education.
However, for Thomas Amoaning, this dream would have come to naught but for the intervention of the President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo-Addo.
Thomas recently completed Adeiso SHS with a perfect score of 8As in the recently releases WASSCE results.
His story of not being able to continue due to his poor background caught the attention of the President on social media who has directed the Scholarship Secretariat to give him a full scholarship.
A statement from the Ghana Scholarship Secretariat noted that President Akuffo-Addo has taken notice of Thomas’ excellence in the 2020 WASSCE and has directed that he be granted full scholarship.
“As a normal practice and taking into consideration the socio-geographical background of the student, HE the President has expressly directed the Ghana Scholarships Secretariat to grant full scholarship award to the student for his tertiary studies,” the statement read.
