Education in the Upper West Region especially at the basic level, for some time now, has taken a nose dive. The past few years have seen various key stakeholders host at several fora to brainstorm and find an antidote to this decline.

Against this backdrop, government has donated 85 motorbikes for all 11 municipal and district in the region.
