Minister Sackey Orders Immediate Removal of Abandoned Vehicles from School Compounds Nationwide
The Minister of Basic and Senior Secondary Education, Mr. Conrad Sackey, has ordered the immediate removal of all abandoned vehicles from school compounds nationwide, describing them as dangerous hazards that threaten the lives of pupils.
The directive followed an unannounced visit by Minister Sackey to Vine Memorial Secondary School, where he stressed that no child’s life should ever put at risk within a learning environment.
Recalling the tragic and avoidable deaths of two pupils at National Pentecostal Primary School last year, the Minister said the incident must never be repeated.
“All abandoned vehicles in school compounds must be removed,” Minister Sackey stated, emphasizing that the directive is non-negotiable. He announced that schools have been given one week to comply.
