Vice president Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has commissioned the National Children’s Library at a plush event in Accra on Wednesday, February 15, 2023.
The vice president also commissioned a Mobile Library filled with over 1,000 books on the same day, and pledged to work constantly to close Ghana's current learning poverty gap and make the country a "learning nation".
"The two-storey Library, constructed by the Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT) as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility plans, is the 115th Public Library in Ghana and the 13th in Greater Accra Region," the vice president posted on Facebook.

According to the vice president, the new library facility adds to the many that the current government has built since coming to office in 2017.

Adwoa Safo and Nana Akufo-Addo launch ultramodern kindergarten
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh has reported that president Akufo-Addo and Sarah Adwoa Safo have been seen together in a photo during the inauguration of the Kwabenya Model Kindergarten School on February 14.
The president and the Dome-Kwabenya MP have had a falling out over the MP's long absence from Parliament and her former post as minister for Gender, Children and Social Protection.
The lawmaker also flouted standing orders of Parliament on absenteeism, prompting a motion to kick her out of the Legislature too. That process remains inconclusive and she still is a lawmaker.
In photos shared on Facebook, Sarah Adwoa Safo can be seen flanking the president on his left as he cut a ribbon to launch the model school.
