Another thoughtless statement. Then and now comparison is useless. Going back to those days only retrogrades. It does not lead to any meaningful development.

Some of you did studying without lights at night so it must be ideal not to have lights?

The fact is clear, their colleagues in countries that have lights and other amenities, and who these poor students will compete with when they grow are already far ahead of them.

Their concerns are very genuine. One cannot sufficiently study during the day time only.

Students in boarding schools are given extra time to go for preps at nights. Why do you think the schools institute preps time?

These poor students do not have that luxury now. They have to basically do every activities curricular and extra curricular activities during the day. And you think it augurs well for the students??

I see these as lazy ones or those who rely on 'APO' to pass. In the olden days, rural and some part of towns do not have electricity, yet they passes their MSLC, O/L, A/L, and certs A & B. Most students in ghana today have lost respect for their books and just engaged in negative moral that will help then to fail. To blame dumsor for your failure is useless, is dumsor who is writing your exams for you? Better sit down and learn, is not too late to catch up. GOOD LUCK.

Kwaku, the blame game is what is wrong. It is not so much the circumstances under which the exams are written. Just think of two candidates who prepared for their exams under the same "Dumsor" conditions. One passes with distinction and the other fails miserably. Will "Dumsor" get the credit for the distinction also?

Any student that fails his/her exams and blames dumsor is not a serious student. We can blame and insult the president but they should remember that others are programming themselves well and learning better during the day. Student in deprived areas still without electricity are writing the exams. We see the best in us during difficult times. Please get serious during the day, the night is for resting so you will have a sound mind to recall what you have learnt in the past.

Ask yourself how the students in those deprived areas fare in the exams they have written in the past. They do not do well because of their precarious and deprived situations lighting for extra studies at night.

If the whole country is now facing similar sad situation, do you think the urban dwellers, who hitherto had the lights that helped them do well in their exams because they could do extra study time at night, but do not have the lights now, will fare any better than those students in the rural areas?

Maybe you were a day student so you never had the opportunity to go for preps at night. Their concerns are very genuine. To dismiss it smacks of ignorance.

You must be ashamed of yourselves for failing your exams because of dumsor!!! What an opportunity for people of your kind! You are praying for the dumsor to continue until after your exams knowing very well that you are not prepared for the task ahead, your examinations. Very, very sad indeed!!

So candidates, all I can say is that...you didn't learn. You waited for the last minute and the last minute gave you dumsor. Now you wonna blame dumsor? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
What about villages that do not have electricity. What should candidates in those schools say?
