The Member of Parliament (MP) for the Tamale Central, Alhaji Inusah Fuseini has embarked on several developmental projects including the construction of classroom blocks to give decent accommodation to students in his constituency.
One of such projects is a 12-unit two-storey classroom facility for the Queen Elizabeth Basic School at Tishegu, a suburb of the Tamale metropolis.
Alhaji Fuseini, who is also the Deputy Minister of Energy, said funding for the project was secured from the GETFund and was aimed at
improving the quality of education as part of the Government’s Better Ghana Agenda vision for the people.
Construction of the project which is at the cost of GHc416,959.90 will take 18 months to be completed. The Queen Elizabeth Basic school
in the metropolis was formally built and named after the Queen of Britain and reputed to be one of the oldest schools in the region.
Alhaji Ibrahim Yussif Andani, Tamale Central Constituency Chairman of the NDC, who spoke on behalf of the MP, said the MP will soon start the construction of a six-unit classroom block at the
Police Primary School at the cost of GHc150,000.

The Tishegu Ward Chairman of the NDC, Mr. Afa Aminu, commended the MP for embarking on such numerous development projects and appealed to
the MP to focus attention on the human resource development of the youth in offering them employment opportunities.
