A student of Accra Polytechnic speaks to Joy News

Over one hundred Accounting students of the Accra Polytechnic are calling on government to intervene in what they say is the apathetic attitude of the school authorities to give them their result slips.

The students say they failed one subject and were made to re-sit in 2007 but the school authorities have not been able to release their result slips.

The students fear losing their certificates at the end of this year.

One of them who spoke to Joy News under anonymity said government must intervene.

"Nobody seems to be telling me anything concrete; we are frustrated," the student complained.

According to him, although he was promised his certificate would be included in the list for the 2008 academic year, he was shocked to find his name "eliminated", alleging that the school authorities have not been cooperative.

The school authorities have meanwhile declined comment on the issue saying results released so far are provisional.
