Eric recounted how he moved from Begoro in the Eastern Region to live with his grandparents in Accra but soon realized that money to cater for himself would be a problem and hence had to drop out of school.

“When I dropped out I had to fetch water and also do garden work for people, so I could get money to buy food. I couldn’t combine school with what was I doing because the money to pay for school fees and other items was not there, so I gradually lost interest in school” he confessed.
