Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Mr Abdul-Basit Abdul-Rahaman, the Executive Director of Impact Ghana, a youth advocacy NGO, has called on the Government and other stakeholders to institute measures to promote reading and writing among students.<\/b><\/p>\n

He said reading and writing would broaden the intellectual scope of students and help to harness their potentials for national development.<\/p>\n

Mr Abdul-Rahaman made the call in an interview in Tamale and said: \u201cExposing students to the reading and writing culture is a catalyst for boosting their understanding of issues of national and global concerns\u201d.<\/p>\n

He expressed the need for government and NGOs to prioritise the provision of reading facilities for students, especially those in the rural areas.<\/p>\n

Impact Ghana, in collaboration with the Ghana Library Authority and the Ghana Education Service, is rolling out a three-year project for basic and senior high school students in the Northern Region, as part of measures to improve their reading habits.<\/p>\n

Mr Abdul-Rahaman said the project would engage students through the formation of reading and writing clubs across the region to help regain the missing culture of reading among students.<\/p>\n
