Hello youth of Ghana..... You can take your own life with medicine. For instance 15 tramadol at once......or combine medicine and akpeteshie or weedicide .
Its not about their monthly rent but the impacts these teachers are giving to our children. In Ghana we belittle TEACHERS too much. Teachers really need free accomodations, free health care, free transportations.
How can we ...

Nonsense, everyone needs motivation and that is how we have destroyed the nation. Soldiers pay rent, electricity and water. Go and find out.
Mumbi Seraki still hanging out in the gutter
If anything has destroyed me the nation it is senseless people like you who support the exploitation of poorly paid workers who are generally so deprived that they do not give off their best. Can't you think?
MPS are on board of corporations,receiving allowances,still pay little money for services they use and blaming a poor teacher for paying 30 cedis as rent
Cheating society.
@Burkina, I suppose you are one of those teachers who think everything should be free for you? For your information, everybody is making impact on peoples lives and not only teachers. Doctor, nurses, engineers, etc are all ma ...

Do we know that the Teachers who stay on Campus don’t end their work at the end of the class? Those who serve as Housemasters and Mistresses do extra work after teaching. Yes, they are usually with the students after classe ...

I am pretty sure housemasters/mistresses get allowances for those positions.
Kwaku, I don’t know if Teachers who engage in co curricular activities are now paid for programs. At my time as a Teacher in Ghana, I was very young and was assigned many such responsibilities as a Housemaster, Assistant Sp ...

How is asking teachers to pay a reasonable rent for government accommodation belittling them? Asking them to pay 10% as rent is very charitable
Teachers should then be paid for co curricular activities that they do even after teaching. How many people on this forum will want to take students to the Hospital at night for free. And do we know that some teachers use the ...

Government must be wise and chop off all those wastes. This might not be popular but very necessary. The government uses our money to train doctors, teachers, etc., and employ and pay them. Why on earth should accommodation b ...

@Dotcom. Thanks for your words. I can not agree with you more. We have leadership problem in Ghana. I see no reason why government should provide accommodation for some workers. These are all colonial legacies which we should ...

Kwaku, the benefits of boarding in our schools is by far one of the greatest reasons Ghana has peace. We are not overly tribalistic, especially the lettered because we always interacted from diverse parts of the country in ou ...

Your brazen ignorance has preceded you again! Boarding school has done little to curb tribal bigotry in our very polarised society.

Brilliant question Sir

@Kk, shut up. It is the law that is questioning whether those teachers/staff are paying the required rent, not Samuel Mills. The law says that if you're a government worker occupying a government bungalow/quarters, etc., you ...
