Dr Clement Apaak, Deputy Minister for Education and Member of Parliament for Builsa South, has paid a morale-boosting visit to BECE candidates at Tamale Secondary School in the Northern Region.
The visit formed part of the government's nationwide monitoring of the ongoing Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE), which began earlier this week.
