My heart is bleeding for Ghana. These kids are our future leaders. Why are Ghanaians leaders being so harsh to Ghanaians so much. Situation like these needs urgent attention, however i strongly believe Nana Addo, will do something about it. Well, am tempted to believe the images are for political propaganda, why are the kids walking through the stream instead of crossing? If indeed it's a fact let our leaders especially the minister of education my learned friend Dr. Mathew Opoku, must speedily intervene with all the necessary attention it deserves.

If the purpose of this picture is to disgrace Nana Akufo-Addo and the NPP government,it has failed. It has failed because,the NDC world bank has been the Volta Region. The Volta Region has always voted NDC and the NDC has ruled Ghana for more years than all other parties combined. The question is why has the Volta Region students walking the waist deep water to get to school? It tells us that the NDC neglected the Volta Region,but Nana Akufo-Addo is for all Ghana and the Volta Region will be cared for.

Now that Ghana will face off with India in the U-17 World Cup, let's remind ourselves of the greatest childhood football lie ever told.

Ghana played against India on Indian soil. India did their juju. Whenever Ghana tried kicking the ball, it turned into dades3n and when the keeper tried saving it, it turned into a lion. Then India scored 100-0. Then one fearless Shamo Quaye kicked the ball to score our only goal. His leg got swollen and died later.

So who started this lie? am told Adwoa Safo was the reporter on the day!!!

THE COUNTRY ITSELF IS SICK? How can a country be sick leaving the people in it? Ghana as a land cannot be sick but the people in it are sick; if the people are sick then it is make of politicians. If you have the type of Asi ...

THE COUNTRY ITSELF IS SICK? How can a country be sick leaving the people in it? Ghana as a land cannot be sick but the people in it are sick; if the people are sick then it is make of politicians. If you have the type of Asiedu Nkatia calling themselves POLITICIANS what would be the result of their work? It is a big shame to allow people of his standard to join the political elite of a country. No country being serious with a forward-march will have useless heads like that guy as leaders of a political party. The way to become a politician in Ghana is the whole source of our problems. Our universities produce politicians but they have no stand in the country's administration so what is the use of have that faculty at all?

Can anyone/anybody/someone/somebody explain why, Ghana after years of independence is still behind time. Our independence is meaningless if you think about it.

I did'nt think about it that way, until I read your comment. I think you are right. Because I am also in Canada.
However, could you please tell me anywhere in the countries you mentioned that there are no sidewalks that are cleared on every snow fall for easy passage by pedestrians? In fact in most cases, there are crossing guards where children have to cross the roads.

But, again, after carefully analysis, at best, this article begs the question whose responsibility is this menace?

There is no way in such politically charged environment as ours, we can separate such development from politics.

Voltarians in general are little thinkers who only use emotions to think instead of their heads. These people have always stated that irrespective of whether NDC is led by human beings or chickens, they will forever vote NDC to power. Since the fourth republic, which began in 1992, NDC has been in power for at least 17 years out of the 25 years.

Are they crying fowl now? Well, if people shall be pigs to allow pigs to prepare their meal, I tel you they will eat shit from their own behind.
I don't mean to insult anyone. My honest and provocative comment is meant to incite some real human thinking.

In all parts of the world, anytime it rains like the one we see in the pictures, schools are closed.It floods everywhere including the US where i live. And anytime there is inclement weather-rain, snow, hurricane,even heat wave, schools are closed for safety reasons. So why should the students go to school when there is such a flood?

People from this town are lawyers, doctors,politicians etc in big town whilst their hometown is neglected to this level. Why ? They are waiting on the govt to fix everything that is broken in the town. It is not just today that they are walking through water to school.this is has veen happening for years. People from the town should mobilise abd build a temporal structure ob this water to save lives. My advice to Govt is to reactivate the engineers regiment of the army and put them to use in building all these so many broken bridges

Wise Nana addo should RETOOL THE ENGINEERS REGIMENT OF THE GHANA ARMY and use them of these many broken down bridges.
