He added that, the KG school building which was constructed by the Duadaso No 2 community needs to be renovated since it has developed some cracks and others.

The DCE and his team from there proceeded to Mayera R/C Primary School headed by Mr Yeboah Yaw Emmanuel with a student population of about 251 made up of 56 Class one students, 43 KG 2 students as we as 152 KG 1 students that had the roof of their classroom block ripped off rendering the students studying under cashew trees.

The team from there ended up their visit at the Sampa Nurses Training School headed by Mr Charles Kandire to access the situation in the school.

According to the principal who updated the DCE and his team on the current situation in the school said, the Assembly should assist them with classrooms since the student population keeps increasing every semester.
