RNAQ Foundation, Ga Mantse award scholarships to 115 Ga-Dangme students, promise jobs and business funding for beneficiaries
The RNAQ Foundation, in partnership with the Ga Mantse, King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, has awarded scholarships to 115 Ga-Dangme students from 23 tertiary institutions under a new scholarship support initiative.
The beneficiaries were selected from 1,689 applicants who applied to the RNAQ and Ga-Dangme Scholarship Support Fund, spearheaded by RNAQ Holdings President, Richard Nii Armah Quaye.
The scholarship presentation ceremony was held at the Ga Mantse Palace on Monday, November 2, 2026, marking the launch of the programme’s first cohort.
According to the Lead of the RNAQ Foundation, Emmanuel Lamptey, 64.3 per cent of the successful applicants had attained First Class academic standing, while the remaining 35.7 per cent had Second Class Upper grades.
The selected students are drawn from institutions including the University of Ghana, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Accra Technical University and the University of Cape Coast.
Speaking at the ceremony, Mr Armah Quaye urged the beneficiaries to maintain strong academic performance, adding that successful graduates would receive special consideration for employment opportunities within RNAQ companies.
He also indicated that beneficiaries interested in entrepreneurship could access investment support from RNAQ Capital, subject to presenting viable business ideas.
The initiative is intended to ease the financial burden on families and ensure that financial difficulties do not prevent deserving Ga-Dangme students from pursuing higher education.
