Electricity has finally been restored to Tanyigbe Senior High School in the Ho Municipality of the Volta Region by the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) following nearly a week of power outage caused by a rainstorm.<\/p>\n

The outage occurred on May 22 after heavy rains and strong winds caused a tree to fall on an electricity pole supplying power to the school, plunging the entire campus into darkness and disrupting academic activities.<\/p>\n

The situation affected teaching and learning, particularly for final-year students preparing for the 2026 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE). <\/p>\n

Students had resorted to studying at night with torchlights and other improvised lighting sources, while the school\u2019s computer laboratory was temporarily shut down.<\/p>\n

\"ECG<\/figure>\n

Following reports by Myjoyonline highlighting the school\u2019s plight, ECG\u2019s Volta regional branch moved in to address the challenge and restore power supply to the campus.<\/p>\n

School authorities have expressed appreciation to ECG and all stakeholders who contributed to resolving the problem.<\/p>\n

According to management, normal teaching and learning activities have now resumed smoothly, bringing relief to both students and staff.<\/p>\n

They noted that the restoration of electricity has also enabled candidates writing the ongoing WASSCE to adequately prepare for their examinations without further disruptions.<\/p>\n

Authorities at the school commended the swift response after public attention was drawn to the issue and appealed for continued support to improve the school\u2019s infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Tanyigbe SHS serves several farming communities within the Ho Municipality, including Klave, Shia, Avee, Nyive, Tokokoe, Atikpui and the Akoefe enclave.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
