School pupils have been caught on camera making a really tedious journey through uncomfortable landscapes just to access education.
School pupils swimming through the river
A shocking video has been released showing how pupils in Ghana struggle to go to school.
The footage was released by GHOne News.
The video shows how pupils swim their way through two rivers in a quest to gain access to education at Tsavanya, the nearest community with school facilities.
According to the report, canoes are mostly unavailable to convey the kids from Agorde to Tsavanya, leaving them to use a deadly means by putting their uniforms and books in basins and hold it carefully as they swim across to Tsavanya.
Speaking to GHOne News, Kpodo who access the river with two of his brothers and other children said it is more dangerous especially during rainy seasons but they have no choice but to bravely navigate the waters to school.
