Story: Emmanuel Modey, Hohoe
THE Saint Agatha’s Commercial College at Hohoe in the Volta Region has held its 3rd graduation ceremony at Hohoe.
In all, 22 advanced and 66 general course students passed out at a colourful ceremony attended by people from all walks of life.
The Bishop of the Ho-Diocese, Right Reverend Francis Lodonu, advised the grandaunds to feel proud of their profession by working hard.
He noted that the major problem facing the youth today was that they were doing what they were not destined to do.
“That is why after school, they cannot get jobs whilst the job market is still not choked,” he added.
The Volta Regional Director of the Ghana Education Service (GES), Mrs Oliva Sosu, asked them to feel proud of their chosen field, since they had an easy access to the job market.
She said they should not play second fiddle to anybody at the workplace, but should know that they could equally rise to become chief accountants, among others.
She noted that formerly, academic knowledge was emphasised, forgetting that the world was run by business professionals.
In her welcoming address, the Principal of the College, Rev. Sister Joyce Frances Nfodzo, said since the advanced course was introduced in 2001, the college had produced 131 students for the job market.
She also took the opportunity to call on past students to form a formidable association to help their alma mater.
