A JHS three student, Gladys Agyemang Boateng, who spoke to Accra-based Joy FM said "anytime it rains, we do not get the chance to learn. And even when it stops we have to get brooms and sweep the water in the classrooms. So we call on the government to help us so that we don’t struggle like we do now.
