He noted that the school, formerly known as Uga Secondary School, was one of only four secondary schools in the area at the time, adding that it played a critical role in shaping his educational foundation.
Soludo, however ,expressed gratitude to the school’s founders, teachers and the host community for their sacrifices and commitment to education.
He particularly praised his former teachers, describing them as dedicated, competent and professionals.
The governor assured that his administration would continue to provide a conducive learning environment.
Earlier, the principal of the school, Mr Benjamin Igwema, commended the governor for his transformative interventions in the education sector.
Igwema said recent reconstruction works had significantly improved the school’s learning environment, to the benefit of students.
He also lauded the governor’s free education policy and sponsorship of West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) fees.
According to him, the initiatives had increased student enrolment and expanded opportunities for learners.
