So rather than solving the problem (Millions without access to appropriate schooling) we cover it up.

Let alone what they need is NOT computers, it's phones (And more importantly TV and Radio access)

I know a lot of these places can't afford the electricity to run the machines, was this sorted? (And if it has solar, generator or intermittent, then low wattage devices with UPS are needed)

A Ghanaian company (subsidiary of the Indian one) donated the computers, so hopefully they're aware of any potential power issues.
Yeah... A lot of the places may not have consistent power supply. But They may have alternative such as a Generator or Solar Smart Inverter.
