AngloGold Ashanti, Iduapriem Community Trust Fund has commissioned new projects for people in its host communities in Adieyie and Badukrom, all in the Tarkwa Nsuaem Municipality.

The projects including a new Junior high school classroom block and Aqua-privy Toilet Facility were commissioned by the Chairman of the Iduapriem Trust Fund Board, Professor Newton Amegbey.

The New Junior high school block equipped with an ICT library and furniture at Adieyie and the Aqua privy at Badukrom were established at a cost of about GH¢1 million.
