Mr Peter Kwabena Gyesi, the Bono Regional Director of the National Commission on Civic Education (NCCE) has urged school children to learn and become well informed in provisions in the 1992 Constitution.

As future leaders of the nation, he said it was imperative for the school children to understand the constitution better.

Mr Gyesi gave the advice when speaking at an inter basic school quiz competition organised by the NCCE at Wamanafo in the Dormaa East District of the region to commemorate the 68th Independence Anniversary celebration.

He urged the school children to join the civic education clubs set up in their respective schools.

Mr Emmanuel Hinneh, the Dormaa East District Director of NCCE stressed the need to help imbibe in the school children the ideals and principles of democratic governance, explaining that the competition was a way to inspire the schools to learn the 1992 Constitution.

The Sabwill Junior High School (JHS) emerged winners of the competition and received a trophy followed by the Seventh Day Adventist (SDA) JHS and the Saint James JHS in that order.

They were given a wall clock each, while each of the competing students received exercise books.
