Huni-Valley (W/R), May 10, GNA-The Huni-Valley Senior High School (HUNIVASS) in the Prestea Huni-Valley Municipality of the Western Region has received 10 desktop computers with accessories to promote the teaching of Information and Communication Technology (ICT).

Mr Isaac Asante, the Chief Executive Officer of GASO Petroleum Limited, at a ceremony at the school to hand over the computers, urged the Management to use the computers wisely to derive the maximum benefits.

He assured the School of the company’s continuous support to improve upon teaching and learning.

« With the numerous challenges facing the school, GASO Petroleum Limited would adopt HUNIVASS for the next three years to help improve its current state, » Mr Asante said.

« We do employ most people in this community as part of our recruitment processes, if we put in a lot of effort for their training at the initial stage it would help raise people who would offer quality service in the future, » he said.
