Unfortunately, teachers who toil to prepare students for competitions always end up getting a can of Pepsi and biscuits only dt is not up to N300.
When u calculate the amount they spent on transportation to d venues from take off to finals, u will really discover dt teachers dissipate their energies in such ventures in vain.
