In the run-up to the 2024 parliamentary elections, Ras Mubarak, a well-known politician and former Member of Parliament for Kumbungu, has announced his plans to prioritize education if elected to serve once again. Mubarak, who is running on the ticket of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has pledged to provide GHC7,000 to each student in Kumbungu to help them pursue their education.
Education has long been a priority for Mubarak, who is himself a graduate of the University of Ghana and a former Deputy Minister of Culture, Tourism, and Creative Arts. He has consistently advocated for increased investment in education, believing that it is the key to unlocking the potential of young people and ensuring that they can contribute meaningfully to the development of their communities and the country as a whole.
Mubarak's plan to provide GHC7,000 to each student in Kumbungu is a bold and ambitious one, but it is also a necessary one. Many young people in the constituency struggle to overcome financial barriers to education, with the cost of tuition, textbooks, and other school supplies often proving prohibitive. By providing financial support to these students, Mubarak hopes to level the playing field and ensure that every child in Kumbungu has access to the education they deserve.
But Mubarak's plan is not just about providing financial support to students. He also intends to work with educational institutions in Kumbungu to improve the quality of education on offer. This includes investing in teacher training, building new schools, and providing the necessary resources to ensure that students have access to a well-rounded and comprehensive education.
For Mubarak, education is not just a means to an end – it is a fundamental human right that should be available to all. He believes that by investing in education, we can create a brighter future for young people in Kumbungu and set them on a path to success.
Of course, Mubarak's plans will require significant investment, and he will need the support of the government and other stakeholders to make them a reality. But with his track record of advocacy and his commitment to education, he is well-positioned to make a real difference in the lives of young people in Kumbungu.
As the race for parliament heats up, it is important to remember the issues that matter most to the people we seek to represent. Education is one of those issues, and Ras Mubarak's plan to provide financial support to students in Kumbungu is a bold and inspiring one. Let's hope that his vision for education becomes a reality, and that the next generation of young people in Kumbungu are given the tools they need to succeed.
