The staff of Bibiani Old Town Nzongo Primary and JHS embarked on a sit-down strike on Tuesday over the poor hygienic condition on the school's premises.
In recent times, there have been records of yet-to-be-identified persons invading the school for their illegal activities including smoking and ‘shit-bombing’.
According to the authorities, the residents have turned the school into a ‘wee base’.
With their pleas and warnings falling on deaf ears, the school authorities staged the sober protest to voice their anger.
Some students, speaking to Adom News’ Augustine Boah, said the smell from the latrines and faeces smeared on their marker boards, tables and chairs exposes them to diseases.
They have therefore appealed to the authorities to put in place stringent punishment for perpetrators.
The Assembly member of the electoral area, Abdallah Mohammed, admitted the problem and sent a firm warning to perpetrators of the act to be very careful because anyone who will be caught in the act would be used as scapegoat.
