Who is in charge of ordering School Equipment?
Has the designated officer put in a requisition to the Ministry of Education?
Is the Headmaster aware of the lack of equipment?
I suspect, "foul play"....Politics as usual.

what is this? shame to Ghana leaders. the only thing they know is to drive big cars, having more wives and girlfriends for themselves but can't provide computers for our schools.

Well, we can't always rely on politicians to do everything. Maybe, that's our downfall, the government controlling virtually every sector of the country.

I heard they(NDC) were giving out free computers to individual students. This shows the intellectual emptiness of our leaders including the President.
