NSS Wahala: Female teacher travels through thick forest to risky school (video)

A newly trained female teacher has shared a harrowing account of her journey to a school in the Tarkwa-Nsuaem Municipality of Ghana's Western Region, where she was recently posted for her national service.

In a video shared on social media, the teacher is seen travelling on the back of a motorbike through a muddy, forested path. The narrow road winds through dense vegetation and what appear to be farmlands, highlighting the difficult terrain she must navigate daily.

After a while, she films her arrival at the school — a structure in a severely dilapidated state. The building, believed to be a primary school, is held up by wooden poles, has no proper walls, and contains broken furniture and a damaged blackboard. It is located adjacent to a cocoa farm.
