This does not look real to me. Very neat uniforms. For how long have these pupils been wading through this river to school? Or they have just acquired new uniforms? May God help our leaders to fix these problems instead of bu ...

The resilience of the people is even more astonishing, that they would cross this dangerous and treacherous river with smiles on their faces, just to go get education.
Our people do not know how to riot else they would ha ...

All what these Volta NDC like Kofi Adams and Ablawkwah know is to steal and loot. That wasn't too much transparent to Ablawkwah and his notorious NDC.

Is it not the responsibility of the government of the day to address problems in the country?
You must accept that notorious NDC is do nothing party. All what NDC does is to steal and loot. For more than thirty five years in power, if you have such problems in your region, then what have you been doing. And this same ...

No comment. Well spoken. Thanks.
Please allow sensible people to talk Appiah Kubi Desmond.
Do you reason if for 8 yrs ,Mahama couldn't do it , how do you expect somebody to do it in 7 months. Imantipate yourself from mental slavery
You voted for NDC therefore go there for help. The lnsult you are raining on Akofo Addo will not bring food on your table. Where is your stealing King John Daft Mahama , that is the best place to go.
Appiah kubi Desmond you are Pig, Dog Bull and a Vulture.
Appiah Kubi, it looks like are an idiot from the way people are describing you. If you are under water, you want the president to come to live with you under water?

who made these thousands of akans stranded? useless mahama did that and he allowed these chinese in too. we will let them out. ndc a visionless party.
Do something about only this "one". Very typical of Ghanaians. There are hundreds if not thousands of equally pressing and depressing situations around the country. Just because this "one" has been reported does not make it t ...

Govt must provide for all such communities in trouble. They are also Ghanaians.
What are the local authorities doing in the first place?
This is just the beginning of the challenges to be faced by government. In spite of anticipated free SHS there's looming problems ininfrascture at basic schools across the country, Ghana has a long way to go....
They keep voting for NDC
Lack of empathy and greed has lead to us not to be even concerned about the next generation who will help pay our pension. In small communities if the kids exceed 20 a school should be created with combined classes and each ...

This is the way they try to stop free JHS
I seconded govtv comment, do their parents vote. Last year is it the same. The former DCE for Ho not aware of this problem before 2016.
Building of bridges on many of our rivers like U.K and did on river Thames or in France is what we need in Ghana.
Where is fifi akweete ? Where is kwakye ofosu? Where is o.ablakwa babies with sharp teeth
Mr Ankomah you can call on the Military Engineers in Accra or Takoradi and they can erect temporary bridge for their use. Very sad situation. I hope the District Assembly is watching!

Ace Ankomah, however you slice it, Ghana is sub-Third World nation. Unfocused, ill planned & corrupt to the marrow.
Wading through water on the way to school, with mobile phone & no bags of books. Was this staged?
Even if the river crossing was staged, it does not matter.
The important message is that this is what the people have been doing on daily basis.
Our elected parliamentarians have ignored their plight and this is the only wa ...

Kwaku Anyidaho and Asiedu Nketia must tell us what happened to Mahama's "unprecedented infrastructure" development, which left this poor community behind. NDC deception is being reviled each day.
This is a shame ghana of today , kuffour JJ Rawlings , Mahama why?
This is mother nature at work.In Canada , US and Europe some children dig through feets of snow and sometimes wade through same floods to school. Ghanaians like complaining too much,even about nature.
A lot to do.So many Schools Pupils are under Trees learning at this age

Have you watched the Chinese landslide that ran on the main street of the city? Flooding can take any form depending on the force and the quantity of water available.
Why the President? Can't the Regional Minister or the Assembly handle this issue and leave bigger issues to the President to handle.
