The Youth of Kasunko join with The Friends Committee to clear the land for building.

F16aFriends of Kasunko meet regularly to advance the dream and keep community motivation high. Their passion shows in the address below.

A recent delegation met with the Orange SL Regional  Manager seeking support to erect the radio antennae to the Orange tower in Fadugu. 

‘Good evening Kasunko.

‘Nelson Mandella once said that Education is the route to success of a nation. Kasunko will develop only with the requirements of a standard education.

‘Education is the life-long process of learning through which members of a society aquire knowledge and developed skills, ideas, values, norms and attitude which they share with other members of the society. Educational systems are culture-specific, promoting norms as a vein of cultural existence. Therefore education may be understood as the transmitter of culture.

‘In this case, we need not to blame the ministry, head teacher or the teachers. Let us don’t be afraid to cast the blame on the stakeholders and the parents. They are the people responsible. They believe in their culture more than educating a child, especially the girl-child. Culture does not simply “exist” somewhere waiting to be discovered. It was invented by people. Therefore, it is high time we encourage our stakeholders, parents etc. to follow the interdependent systems or elements that consist of ideas, beliefs, values and ways of reasoning that human beings learn to accept in defining what is desirable and undesirable.

‘Now, is the Dream desirable? “YES!” Radio Kasunko will be an immediate rescue to the retrogression. Communication is Education. Education is communication. They are mutually related ideological systems.

‘Radio Kasunko will help in the creation of skills, crafts and arts that will enable us to produce material goods derived from our natural environment through technological systems.

‘The Dream will encourage our fathers, brothers and other relatives to raise their knowledge about the importance of education through dissemination of information. It will encourage our people to afford communication systems like radios, etc.

‘Once more, it’s high time we try to coordinate effectively towards achieving The DREAM.’
