Actor And Comedian Michael Blackson Opens Tuition Free School In His Village In Africa

Ghanaian-Liberian actor and comedian, Michael Blackson, who is based in the US, has completed the building of a school in his country Ghana.

After further investigation, we found out that the school, Michael Blackson Academy, is located in his village called Agona Nsaba in the Central Region of Ghana. Blackson was in Ghana for the inauguration and to see the students off for their first day of school.

Amazingly, the Michael Blackson Academy is a tuition free school. Therefore, all students attending will have free education. This is something he has always wanted to do once he became successful, as giving back to his hometown is his priority. In a recent Tweet, the comedian encourages those who are in a position to give back to do so.

Giving back to the community in this manner is one of the best ways to empower your people.
