ADUTWUMS HANDS ARE SERIOUSLY TIED, if you see what this man had lined up to do for the Ghana education system that his own NPP PEOPLE AND PRIVATE school money/power drunk people shot it down you will be amazed. When i found out I asked myself why shouldn't this guy leave Ghana and return to do what he was doing in the US. NPP is of the view that the guy will be too powerful if he is allowed to implement all his plans, and the private school owners are saying he will kick them out of business. Masa its sad. and you know why its because everyone fighting him from implementing all the the plans don't have children in the public school system. Its truly sad

You are a big idiot to talk like this. If you don't know the histrory of Afram plains ask and get educated. Rawlings was the one who sent electricity cables under water to cross river Afram to Etse Amanfrom to supply light to Afram plains. It was during Rawlings time the road networks in Afram plains was built from a single road that run through Etse to Donkorkrom. Do you the number of soldiers, specifically from the the 64 Engineering regiment, that died on Afram plains road trying to get the place opened up???. It was during Rawlings time that one could travel from Accra to Donkorkrom and return same day, it used to 3days return journey , one day in, second by the time offices open at 8am, all cars are already left the town in their bid to get to river crossing before noon and so you can't return that second day till the 3rd day.

Wow! The teacher is wonderful. God bless her effort. But it seems she Comfortable working alone because when he man asked her what they need I thought her number will be more teachers but she was asking of books, shoes, potable water and electricity. Also, if she has been there for 3 to 4 years and they have class 4 and 5, it means there were other teachers who left the place. Government must not waste time to solve the problem of these people.
It is very urgent. They need more teachers, proper classrooms, books, uniforms, potable water, generators or solar panels and others.

You guys are also failing to tell Ghanaians to be responsible. How do you just give birth to children and expect others to take responsibility. And no one should tell me no job. They have land and water and all that, they have to do is to work hard and overcome the obstacles, but they won’t and will blame someone. The teacher is lazy and have no interest in them. She is just there doing her business or maybe having a strong man in bed and enjoying him. How can you teach eight classes by yourself in a day.

Your comment is very unfortunate. It is better if you didn't comment because it has exposed your weakness. How can you say that my brother?
It is not the responsibility of the parents to build school and provide teachers and learning materials. It is the state. Tell me if the school you attended was provided by your parents or the teachers were your parents. You have not heard of a poor village before. Some of you think the way you got your life smooth everyone should have it that way. Does it mean the poor should not give birth or what? You think it is their making to be located there? I feel very sorry for you. May God change your heart towards poor people.

This is leadership stupidity. Does the MOE and the GES know the prevailing circumstances of the school? Yes, they do, because they saw the need to post a teacher there but did not consider the practical realities of posting adequate teachers, vis-a-vis the school population. There is also a circuit supervisor who is supposed to see to it that these challenges are addressed but, who cares. The teachers are sending their wards to preparatory schools where the children do better under less trained teachers. This is the stupidity I am talking about. Idiots.

I bought an iron rods. It will surprise you to know that there is a Tax for GetFund, Covi-19, Health and another one that I cannot remember off my head now. My question is where does all these money goes to? We should also try to ask questions like. Is the school is recognized and under GES? If so, the Regional Education Director has some questions to answer to the Government and the people of Ghana. The President alone cannot do everything. If this story is true heads start rolling and how man of this school exist in Ghana? We the citizens must come to terms that the Politicians and Pastors children do not go to such schools.

Instead of helping dedicated teachers like this lady to adequately prepare these children who are the future of the country, this corrupt and vision-less Akufo-Addo NPP galamsey government will rather waste money on lap tops for high schoolers while also stealing tax payers' money to fund a sham national cathedral that Ghanaians never asked for. Not only is this teacher burdened with the task of being the sole educator for the entire school, but also the school lacks adequate classrooms. Half of the millions of dollars that Akufo-Addo and his ex-Finagle Minister Ofori--Atta are looting to fund their sham national cathedral could have been used to provide better classrooms for elementary schools across the country as well as lodging quarters for teachers in rural areas. Instead of wasting money on lap tops, that money should rather go to buy mopeds for teachers in rural area schools.

We should stop playing stupid politics here and show true concern. How can we be in this position in this century???? What sort of leaders are these???? Do they have brains at all. They come to power with no policies or misplaced priorities. Can’t someone adopt a policy of revamping our educational system and make it better. How can one learn under such circumstances????? The sad thing is that these children would have to compete for secondary school places with the privileged ones in the cities. Sometimes I looked at myself and that of my mates in secondary school and how poor some of them were in terms of academics, I realised why Ghana is at the state it is. Someone with aggregate 7 could not do simple change of subject maths problem but someone with aggregate 20 from the village could do it at the time. We need to make education an equal playing field and that is the only way we will develop. My heart bleeds for Ghana.
