Article-Summary: 

The headmaster, wearing a tattered red uniform, points at his worn slippers and says, "Look at me. Do I look like a teacher? We have no desks, no books - not even water." Then Ire Yabongengo complains about parents who are fed up with constantly repairing the school, a collection of shacks made of sticks and mud, with roofs made of leaves.
