Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, the Education Minister gave the full scholarships to the 61 engineering students from Bosomtwe through his personal efforts as a way of giving back to his people and Ghana as a whole.

The 61 students add up to the first batch of 30 engineering students who were sponsored in 2021 by the minister.
To facilitate their learning and the use of IT during their period of study, each of the 61 students awarded the scholarship were also given Laptops.
According to the Minister, each student’s fees, boarding, feeding, and transportation have been catered for as part of the full scholarship.
