A total of 12 primary schools in the Tolon District of the Northern Region have been affected by a severe rainstorm which ripped off the roofs of their classroom blocks.<\/p>\n
One of such schools is Woribogu Ahmadiya Primary School where all upper primary pupils there have resumed studies under trees.<\/p>\n
With the continuous rains, the most of the distressed pupils will be absent in school depending on the weather condition.<\/p>\n
[contextly_sidebar id=”l5HiEzBWw1id81MD6XfhYpTRA06bveFZ”]Head teacher of Woribogu Ahmadiya Primary School, Christiana Alandong decried the situation and said her administration was compelled to camp the lower pupils under trees as a means of creating space to accommodate the displaced upper primary pupils.<\/p>\n
She called for the immediate aid from \u00a0government and Non Governmental Organizations.<\/p>\n
Tolon District Director of Education, Amoli Abaako, advised the head teacher to rather maintain the lower primary pupils in their classrooms and keep the upper primary pupils under the trees.<\/p>\n
He was however quick to assure the school authorities of the assembly\u2019s preparedness to re-roof the school building.<\/p>\n
Touched by the plight of the pupils, Northern Ghana Manager of Bayport Financial Services, William Majeed Mahama promised that management of the institution will assist in re-roofing the building.<\/p>\n
Despite the prevailing circumstance, he encouraged the pupils to aspire to become responsible citizens.<\/p>\n
Each pupil at the upper primary level received two branded Bayport Financial Services exercise books whilst those newly admitted pupils into the lower primary enjoyed some drinks.<\/p>\n
