Mr. Gambila warned health workers against stealing drugs from

institutions, saying, "I am aware that the pilfering of drugs has been going on in some parts of the region, and I can assure all the guilty ones that the long arm of the security service is gradually but surely reaching out to them".

Speaking to the physically challenged, the Minister advised them not to feel inferior to anybody since they could do anything if they approached it well.

He later opened a Boys' Hostel built by WV at the cost of 350 million cedis for the Bongo Senior Secondary School. He asked the students to channel their complaints through their prefects to the authorities and to avoid violence since that could not solve problems.

Mr. Peter Akuto, Headmaster of the institution thanked WV for the help and appealed to other NGOs and philanthropists for the provision of toilet facilities for the school. .
