Dumelo shares items with SHS students

YEN.com.gh earlier reported that MP for Ayawaso West Wuogon, John Dumelo, continued to win hearts in his constituency after sharing items with new senior high school (SHS) students as part of an ongoing distribution tour across the area.

In August 2026, Dumelo cut the sod for a new day senior high school in Pantang, part of his Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency.

The land for the project was secured after weeks of negotiation with the EP Church Ghana, which agreed to hand over the site once Dumelo explained the constituency's needs.
