President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has been made an honorary old student of Opoku Ware Secondary School (OWASS).

Nana Akufo-Addo has thus become "Katakyie Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo", with school number i2.

The honour was done the president on Saturday, 7th March 2020, when he attended the 68th Speech and Prize-Giving Day of the school.

Opening its doors to its first batch of 60 students in 1952, Opoku Ware School was established with the objective to create educational opportunities, with Catholic underpinnings, for young boys, to help them better their lives, and improve their prospects for the future.

The founders believed in the power of education to transform lives and lift people out of deprivation and underdevelopment.
