She continued that, some classes have been combined with others to create avenue for other pupils to have equal access to teaching and learning.

According to her, she cannot consider the above as the best approach to the bedevilling challenges but it's a necessary evil, adding the situation affects teaching and learning particularly during the raining seasons. "Class room furniture is also scanty, it needs equal attention", she stated.

She finally appealed to the government and other corporate organizations to run to their aid.

She brought forth this during interactions with Omono Asamoah when the Presiding Member for the Ashanti Mampong Municipal Assembly, Solomon Nyantakyi donated 100 school uniforms to some needy kindergarten pupil.

The Presiding Member for the Ashanti Mampong Municipal Assembly explained that it has always been his priority to extend his benevolence to the poor and needy in society and he has been doing this since time in memorial.

According to him last year he sponsored the registration of 2000 people in his electoral area onto the NHIS to provide easy access to health care.

Beside this, he sponsored mock examinations and organises free vacation classes for the Bosofour R/C JHS every year.

This and many others is what he thinks he could embark on to help tackle social-economic challenges of his people.
