Kumasi Anglican SHS wins NACOC Ashanti poetry competition on drug abuse
The Ashanti Regional Command of the Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) organised a poetry competition for Drug Free Clubs in nine Senior High Schools (SHSs) as part of activities marking the 2026 World Drug Day celebration.
At the end of the competition, Kumasi Anglican Senior High School emerged winners, with Armed Forces Senior High Technical School placing second and Prempeh College taking third place.
Teachers and invited guests commended NACOC for using poetry as a creative approach to engage students in discussions on drug abuse, expressing hope that the messages shared during the competition would encourage informed decision-making and discourage substance abuse among young people.
