Nwawasu, (Bono), April 27, GNA – Mr Samuel Sarkodie, a teacher at the Nwawasu Presbyterian Basic School in the Sunyani Municipality has appealed for the provision of clean water for the school children.
He said lack of water was contributing to poor hygiene and sanitation at the school which had 400 learners from Kindergarten to Junior High level, and called on Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), philanthropists, and corporate bodies to come to their aid.
Speaking to the Ghana News Agency (GNA) in an interview at Nwawasua, a farming community near Atronie, Mr Sarkodie regretted that the only borehole constructed at the school decades ago had not been functioning since 2024.
He said the situation was very bad because the learners and teachers could not have clean water to drink during class hours.
Mr Sarkodie also expressed concern about snake attacks, worrying that there was also no health facility in the community.
