Mr. President, I must confess that I admire your humility and selflessness. I have decided to draw your attention to a few points because I trust that you have a listening ear.

It is now understandable that a nation without teachers and educators is bent to collapse. Every worker in the world around had passed through the hands of teachers.

Unlike other countries where teachers are held with much esteem, Ghana's story is different.

What surprises me is how you have chosen to rule this country differently from how the late president Mills did it. Although I know that you are not the same, it is crucial to know that his approach to the problems facing the country and especially those relating to teachers is excellent and worth following.

How long must feverish birds tremble in silence before their keeper? The earlier you rise up to arrest the situation the better. I am not saying you haven't done anything to help but a stronger commitment on your part would help arrest this problem.
