Danger as over 500 girls are evacuated from collapsing dormitory

Over 500 girls of the Wulugu Senior High School in the

North East Region have been evacuated from their dormitory

block following the poor state of the building.

The students were evacuated by the school authorities for fear of

the dilapidated building collapsing on them.

They have since been moved to the school dining hall which has

no ventilation, raising fears of possible outbreak of the

deadly Cerebro – spinal meningitis in the school.

The challenge of poor and inadequate infrastructure facing

the school has also forced the school authorities to convert

uncompleted and abandoned structures into

classrooms for teaching and learning.

Headmaster of the school, Solomon Yakubu, says the situation is

affecting the free Senior High School programme and called on

the government to intervene by completing a number

of uncompleted projects in the school.
