Nice. Wonderful infrastructure! A little more grass and less gravel though. The children could get hurt while running and playing.

Ato Kwamena (@atoNueki) remarked:

Which will cost less should the Govt try to build the same facility. These are people who the president should be welcoming not musicians who offer nothing

Nana Osei Kojo-Pabi AK-0002276 (@pharders) added:
