Dr Samuel Worlanyo Mensah, called on the government to make quick intervention and complete abandoned infrastructure in the school to boost quality education.<\/p>\n<p>According to him despite the abundant resources of the country, many public schools are still wallowing in neglect and decadence regardless of substantial budgetary allocation to education annually.<\/p>\n<p><a

added that the government Free Senior High School policy which brought relief to parents would be defeated if secondary schools are denied the basic needed infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Worlanyo Mensah who is also an Economist made the call when he visited the O\u2019Reilly school as a concerned citizen upon receipt of complaints of poor infrastructure bedeviling the school, on Thursday, August 31, 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, the school has only three blocks comprising six units and seven units of classrooms for over 1,300 students.<\/p>\n<p>Infrastructure challenges remained ripe; the school has no Assembly Hall, Dining Hall, Science and Computer Labs, sanitary facilities, and no proper drainage system, among other necessities of a public school.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from infrastructural challenges, the school also faces external attacks by miscreants within its immediate environment who scale through the fencing wall to perpetrate crime and bolt out.<\/p>\n<figure
