People in positions of authority have been challenged to use their resources and positively impact on lives of the less privileged for posterity to remember them.
Executive Chairman, State Universal Basic Education Board, SUBEB), Dr Grace Adagba threw the challenge on Sunday at the thanksgiving service organised in her honour and fundraising for complesion of NKST Church, Suswam Mbakunde in Vandeikya local government.
Dr Adagba explained that while she had been counting her blessings during her life’s progression, she always felt unfulfilled due to inability to adequately support less privileged people around her until her elevation as SUBEB Chairman.
She attributed her appointment to the grace of God considering the variety of candidates who jostled for the position, saying it was worthy of returning to God in thanksgiving.
The SUBEB Executive Chairman expressed appreciation to Governor Hyacinth Alia for trusting her with the position and pledged loyalty to his policies which she acknowledged were designed to deliver development to the state.

He commended the SUBEB Executive Chairman for the great work she was doing to reposition basic education in the state and urged her to continue with the good work.
