He urged parents, teachers, pupils and the entire community to take good care of the facility for it to last longer.
The facility comes with a toilet facility for both boys and girls as well as teachers, four classrooms, an office for teachers, tables, chairs and other learning materials at a cost of Ghc300,000.
Mr James Deffor, the headmaster of Anlo Afiadenyigba basic school who received the facility on behalf of the teachers, pupils and the community pledged they will practice maintenance culture to keep the facility well.
