The Techiman Municipal Assembly has provided a 20-seater toilet facility for the Techimam Senior High School girls’ dormitory which was initially facing health threats due to the bad nature of the lavatory. The provision of the new toilet facility became crucial due to the outcry of the students and the administration. The school commended the MCE, Hon Benjamin Garko for the move but expected more due to their large numbers. The MCE was accompanied by the school authorities including the new headmaster, Moses Kofi Adu and the staff for the commissioning.
The MCE, Benjamin Garko, addressing the school, says the NPP government has done a lot for Techiman Senior High School and will do more when Ghanaians vote for the party in 2024 to continue their projects. He says the Free SHS is a key manifestation of the NPP when it comes to education. He admitted that though there are some challenges with the Free SHS, these will be fixed when the NPP is given the chance again.
The 60-year-old school has over 3,500 students including 1,720 girls will need more structures to accommodate more students on campus to enhance teaching and learning. Despite the deficits, the school is one of the best in sporting activities and science. The school’s headmaster, Moses Kofi Adu made the plea to the MCE, Benjamin Garko to consider. He praised the MCE for the 40 dual desks. The headmaster, Moses Kofi Adu welcomes groups, associations and individuals to aid the school in the mentioned challenges.
Some students who spoke off-camera also complained about some dormitory blocks without louvre blades and nets, creating easy access to mosquitoes. This is a health threat which needs immediate attention. Limited washrooms were not excluded!
