Some level 100 students of the Atebubu College of Education in the Atebubu Amantin municipality of the Bono East Region, who reported to the school for the semester without plastic chairs, as prescribed by the Students Representative Council (SRC), have been sent home.

The SRC had, in a communiqué on Wednesday, 25 May 2022, directed first-year students to come along with plastic chairs when reporting for the semester.

The SRC’s directive was to help address the problem of inadequate furniture at the college. 

The SRC, therefore, refused entry to the level 100 students who reported without the chairs.

A level 100 student resident in Atebubu, in a bid to caution other students intending to report for the semester without the plastic chair, shared her experience.

“I’m on an okada en route to my house; I live here in Atebubu. When I arrived at the school, I was not allowed to enter”.

“So, I’m on my way back home because I’m not ready to buy the plastic chair.”
