Students have been advised against drug usage as that could lead to addiction and subsequently jeopardize their future.

Mr Leonard Edem Cosmos, President of the MoFCOM  Scholars’ Alumni Association of Ghana (MoSAAG) who gave the advice said they should avoid any form of negative peer influence.

He encouraged them to rather focus on their academics to become useful citizens of the Country.

It was during a Mentorship programme to promote the need for education among young people as well as challenge them to strive for excellence organised by the beneficiaries of the People’s Republic China’s Ministry of Commerce scholarship, known as the Ministry of Commerce Alumni Association Ghana (MoSAAG).

The Group also donated over three thousand exercise books, in addition to a quantity of pencils, pens, erasers to enhance teaching and learning at the Moree Junction Islamic School in the Central Region.

The President of MoSAAG said the gesture formed part of the Association’s annual corporate social responsibility sponsored by the Chinese Government.

MoSAAG since it’s establishment had carried out several community impact activities such as capacity building of members, donation to flood victims, health screening and digging of boreholes across Ghana, Mr Cosmos said.

He said all these were done to provide relief to the underprivileged communities.

The President called on the public and organisations to help the deprived in the society.

He reaffirmed the Association’s commitment in promoting bilateral relations between Ghana and China whilst fostering the personal and professional development of its members.

Alhaji Haruna Mohammed Abubakar, the head of the beneficiary school thanked the Association for it’s benevolence.

He described the occasion as historic, saying it was also timely as a relief to parents  especially as the children had begun a new term.

Alhaji Abubakar appealed for infrastructural support for the school.
