Togbui Dzablu IV, the Awafia of Kpando Dzewoe, has called on alumni associations of basic schools to pay attention to their alma maters, emphasizing the importance of supporting the foundation of their educational journey.

He was speaking after the Alumni Association of Adidome RC Primary and JHS, his former school, organized a massive facelift project to reroof, plastering and painting of both block A and B of the school on July 27, 2024, at Adidome.

Togbui Dzablu IV noted that people often forget about their humble beginnings and focus on their current status.

He stressed that the basic level is where individuals learn to read, write, and speak, and it is crucial to maintain strong fundamentals.

The Awafia expressed concern that Senior High Schools and Universities receive more attention and support from governments and alumni, while basic schools are often neglected.

He pointed out that many basic schools still lack conducive learning environment, with some pupils learning under trees.

Togbui Dzablu IV, appealed to Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) to support basic schools, citing the need for new dual desks at Adidome RC Primary and JHS, where pupils are using over 30-year-old furniture for learning.

He commended the alumni group for their efforts and encouraged others to follow their example, emphasizing the importance of giving back to the community that nurtured them.
