Illegal miners have invaded the Pankese M/A Junior High school (JHS) in the Birim North Assembly of the Eastern Region.
The illegal miners have taken over almost all the lands that have been reserved by the school for farming purposes and are now digging close to the school.
The situation is hugely affecting teaching and learning as well as endangering the life of the students.
The Headmaster of Pankese M/A Junior High school, Prince Amoako in an interview with Onua News on March 11, said some of the pupils are also involved in the illegal mining activities.
