The facility
A state-of-the-art facility to serve as a library and an Information and Communication Technology (ICT) center has been commissioned and handed over to the Sekondi College (SEKCO) in the Western Region.
The ultramodern educational facility is named after the late Philip Eiwulley-Armah who was an old student.
The Philip Eiwulley-Armah Center for Academic Excellence will also roll out a scholarship scheme for academically outstanding students.
The library was constructed in memory of the late Eiwulley-Armah by his widow, Margaret Eiwulley-Armah, and two children, Nicholas Agyevi-Armah and Alexis Selassie Eiwulley-Armah, as a gratitude for the school’s role in his personal and professional growth.
The center has an auditorium, Henry E. Appiah Dattey Student Technology Center, and Jesse Kwabena Sarpong Learning Commons.
Madam Margaret Eiwulley-Armah, the widow, said her late husband was a great education advocate who dedicated his life to uplifting others.
She noted that his legacy can be measured by his humanitarian impact, the love he gave, and the lives he touched.
She then expressed her gratitude to the benefactors who assisted in making the project a success.
The Western Regional Minister, Kwabena Okyere Darko-Mensah, expressed his sincere appreciation for the family’s bold initiative to help enhance teaching and learning in the school.
The Headmistress of Sekondi College, Guddy Ampomah Kermah, while thanking the Eiwulley-Armah family for the great initiative, promised that the facility would be put to good use.
Eiwulley-Armah, also known as Eiwulley Morkeh, was born on August 20, 1965, at Half Assini in the Western Region of Ghana. He had his secondary education at Sekondi College (SEKCO) from 1981 to 1988, where he served as the school’s Senior Prefect in his final year.
