Asare Krodua Bernard, level 300 student of Kwadaso Agric college expressed his worry over non payment of the students’ allowances and the inadequate number of teachers at the colleges to provide the needed tuition for excellent academic work.

Abeka Benjamin, level 200 students appealed to the Ministry of Food and Agriculture (MoFA) to improve and renovate mechanisation centres in the various agricultural colleges and provide them with buses for educational trips and other related activities.

Owusu Amoako Peter, also a level 200 student also appealed to government to assist them with enough capital to start their own business when they complete school. He added that, there is a lot of government institution in the country which they can be employed directly after school.
