 Determined to serve Ghana as Finance Minister<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

About a decade ago, the educational journey of  Stephanie Darkoa Ofori was very unclear; her family\u2019s financial challenges made it difficult for her to focus on her education. Then came the International Needs Ghana Child Assistance Programme (INCAP) which supported her from Basic School to the Senior High School. INCAP provided school supplies like textbooks and other educational materials that helped her to fully concentrate on her academic work.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
