We owe it to them to socialise with them well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He was confident that \u201cWhen the full facts of the investigations are established, I believe the headmaster will be treated fairly and in a manner that is just. I do not think that the facts available to me justify the action for which he has been asked to step aside.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He appealed to the media to be circumspect in their reportage over the issue.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Iddrisu touched on the infrastructure situation at the school saying it required more infrastructure and appealed to the government \u201cTo help put up more dormitories, an astro turf and a fence wall at the school, which will receive my attention as MP.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said the dormitory in question known as the Indomitable Cabral Hall, was recently renovated by former President John Mahama, who is an old student of the school.<\/p>\n<p>He added that \u201cI am reliably informed that former President Mahama has accepted responsibility to further fix any associated problem with the dormitory, and I will support him in that regard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
