The Ministry of Education, under the leadership of Dr Osei Yaw Adutwum, has set up a television station with theaim of promoting quality education and transforming the nation.
The “Channel MOE” will focus on transmitting quality education materials to students, teachers, parents and other viewers across the world.
Inaugurating the station in Accra yesterday, Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum, was very happy that the vision of setting up the station has come to fruition and hoped it would enhance effective teaching and learning, as well as giving quality information to its viewers wherever they may be.
He lauded the Chief Executive Officer of CENDLOS, Nana Gyamfi Agyabour and the Staff of the agency, for their hard work leading to the successful launch of the station.
Dr Adutwum, who is also the Member of Parliament for Bosomtwe, was upbeat that the new station would help show the various developments in the sector as well as the help in the teaching and learning process.
This, he said, could be done by allowing some teaching of certain lessons on television for the benefit of students who might have missed previous lessons in class, to watch such lessons on television.
He also praised all development partners who contributed in diverse ways towards successful procurement, installation and conduct of test transmission, which lasted a couple of months.
Dr Adutwum was hopeful that the new station would serve as a good platform to transmit quality instructions to students and other viewers as well as quality information needed by all viewers to improve their lives.
He said, “We are building one Ghana where the children of the poor and the rich would have the opportunity to study together to develop their future through the attainment of quality education.”
The Education Minister urged all Ghanaians to ensure that they vote massively for the New Patriotic Party on December 7 to continue the good works it had started for the good of the nation.
The CEO of CENDLOS, Nana Gyamfi Agyabour, expressed joy at the launching of the station because it would educate as well as entertain its viewers
He commended Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum for his exceptional leadership and vision, which led to the incubation of the station as well as the final execution leading to its launching. The CEO commended its developing partners like Planned International, UNICEF and CEMFED Ghana among others for their support towards the attainment of such a feat.
