Kumawood actor, Kwaku Manu who
has frowned upon the rejection and
show of disrespect for local actors in
recent times – has put the Brazil
2014 rejection behind him and gone
ahead to unveil a school he’s built in
Kumasi.
The actor, who named the school,
‘Kweku Manu Educational Complex’
has stated that; his main reason for
putting up the school is not for profit
but a move to give back to society.
According to him, the School has
been opened for a month and he has
made provisions of school uniforms
for the needy students and as well as
slash the percentage of fees to be
paid.
He claimed that, if other donors come
in to support needy students, he is
willing to run the Institution free of
charge but for now, the highly
reduced school fees for students will
suffice.
“Although, I am already into lot of
private businesses, this is the major
thing I have set up and my main aim
for investing in the school is the fact
that, since most of us did not attain
the level of education that we wanted
to, we have now realized how
important school is,” he explained.
The school, which is located in
Kumasi at Atwima Brogoyedu (Santasi
Road), is only for primary education
(P1 – P6) but the actor claims that,
he has lots of plots to extend the
school to the secondary level.
“The only way some of us can also
help the future generation is to build
projects like a school for them, so we
can be proud in future for helping the
nation to discover more future
leaders,” he said.
“As far as I am concerned most of my
pals are doing a lot for the society
but, not all of them want to publicize
it, so that’s why it looks as if we in
Kumasi are not doing much. I can
mention someone like Akrobetu and
others I know. They are setting up
businesses and doing things for the
society, so I will please advise that
the media try and do more research
on that,” he advised.
