They discussed a bouquet of topics: the crippling power crises, leadership, relationship, the just-ended African Cup of Nations amongst others.
On the energy crisis, there was unanimity that managers of the country’s power sector have failed the Ghanaian people.
Vanessa Plange said she believed that the Electricity Company of Ghana was not being truthful with the people.
"The are not frank and transparent with us," Adubea agreed.
On leadership, the kids demonstrated arcane awareness of what is going on in the country.
One girl said takes inspiration from President John Mahama.
"I think he is a good leader, but Ghana does not need a good leader at this time, Ghana needs a great leader," she said.
