Adeiso SHS boy's WASSCE results get Akufo-Addo's attention
Amoani, who completed SHS in 2020, scored 8As in his WASSCE. He gained national attention after it emerged that he could not afford to pay for his university education.
The boy's predicament caught the attention of President Nana Akufo-Addo, who ordered the scholarship secretariat to offer him a scholarship.
True to the Akufo-Addo's order, Amoani was handed the scholarship, and he arrived at Brunel, a highly-ranked UK university, for his studies, weeks later to start his studies in Economics.
