Dr Alanky commissions GH¢1.8m classroom block for Falahia Islamic Primary School, announces scholarships
Businessman and owner of Fanko Hospitality Hotel, Dr Alhaj Nurideen Froko Alanky, has commissioned a six-unit classroom block with ancillary facilities for Falahia Islamic Primary School.
The project, which cost more than GH¢1.8 million, is expected to improve teaching and learning conditions at the school.
Speaking at the commissioning ceremony, Dr Alanky described education as the bedrock of human civilisation and paid tribute to the founders of the school, whom he commended as men of faith and wisdom for establishing the institution despite their limited resources.
He said the project was intended to immortalise the founders and help restore the school's former standing, stressing that traditional schools such as Falahia had a rich history and identity that deserved to be preserved and supported.
Dr Alanky urged teachers to remain vigilant in their role as guardians of children and called on parents to visit the school regularly, work closely with teachers and ensure that their wards complied with the school's rules and regulations.
He also appealed to the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA), the Old Boys Association and his colleagues to support the school to sustain its development.
He expressed gratitude to his family, the project team led by his friend, Samshsadeen Issa, and the project chairman for their contributions towards the successful completion of the facility.
As part of his support for the school, Dr Alanky announced a scholarship scheme under his Foundation for the first 10 students who obtain aggregate scores of between 9 and 12 in the Junior Secondary School (JSS) examination.
He said the Foundation would cover the beneficiaries' first-year school accessories and all expenses required to enable them to enrol and attend school.
Dr Alanky said the commissioning of the classroom block marked the beginning of a broader commitment to the development of the school, adding that the project would not be his last intervention.
