"The question is where is this loaded vehicle leaving the campus to? Food for thought.
It should be stated without any fear or reservation that these same people go out there lamenting about poor governance but fail to dry their own dirty linen in public.
"They should therefore take out the speck on their eyes before going for others. This awful superiority mindset should be spoken against immediately because it is sending mother Ghana to her grave.
"Let us all reflect our minds and consider this witty scenario; a final year students who broke a school regulation was asked to buy certain number of bags of cement for the school," the whiltle browers noted.

"Why should such a single person put a huge cost burden on the masses for his or her selfish private gain?
"Arise, Ministry of Education and spit venom now! Surely, abuse of power, nepotism, intolerance, crime and intimidation are eaten the flesh of teachers who are feeble and coward in our schools and we are saying without any hesitation that in no time this noble profession will lose great men and women in the system and where would Ghana be for posterity to enjoy better life?, they quried.

They said that the Government of Ghana cannot alone make our country a better place for us to live and enjoy the blissful life therein.
They pointed out that the he onus rests on us as citizens to be patriotic, responsible and apt in the various role assigned to us. Else we are going water with baskets.
"Each of us should do away with covert actions, crime, abuse of power be it social or political, nepotism, hatred, power drunkenness, favoritisms to mention but few.
"It is therefore for all of us to understand that, no matter what, a day is on its wheels we shall reap the fruits of the seed we buried under the weak soil," they said.
'We always ask ourselves this simple but thoughtful question whenever we see people whom society adore, cherish and revere as true representatives of Christ exhibiting certain unscrupulous, barbaric and wicked practices or character which no pagan nor an atheist would ever show," they noted.
