Assist students to gain PHDs and Masters's Degree - Fomena Dinsinhene tells AGA.

Anglo-Gold Ashanti in 2015 as part of its social responsibility introduced scholarships for SHS students to aid them in aiding them to reach the highest level of education.

But, the mine in 2016 restructured its plan to advance the scholarship to the tertiary level due to the introduction of free senior high school by the NPP government.

was mine was assisting 80 students previously, but have added 40 students today as they all benefit from the tertiary educational assistance.

However, Nana Owe Asainsinceredinsinhene of the Fomena traditional council is a statistic the assistance from the mine could change the lives of students positively if they extend the scholarship to Masters's degree or Ph.D. level.

He made this known to the media general at a ceremony organized by Anglo-Gold Ashanti trust fund to present 1500 cedis cheques to 40 students who have qualified for this year's scholarship in Obuasi.

The programs manager for the AGA Obuasi community trust fund, Mr. Francis Amoah explains the rationale behind the grant.

He said the mine is poised to enhance education within the Adansi enclave hence the need for all to support the mine's aim to achieve the positive goal.

The mine is currently assisting 120 students to attain degree certificates.
