Methodist JHS closed down After Thugs forced teachers to kneel down for punishing some students
The school was temporarily closed due to an attack by a gang of hooligans who forced a teacher to kneel and apologize to students after punishing them.
According to starrfm.com.gh, on Monday, July 24, 2022, the teacher in question disciplined some students for misconduct.
The dissatisfied students allegedly complained to some town residents, who then approached the teacher on his way home from school.
The enraged students forced the teacher to kneel and apologize to the students, and they also threatened other teachers at the school.
The incident drew the attention of the Abuakwa North Municipal Directorate of Education, which decided to temporarily close the school.
On Thursday, July 28, 2022, Abena Gyamerah, the municipal director of GES, visited the school to meet with the teachers about the incident.
“The students misbehaved and the teachers tried to correct them but they went to inform the town folks so it was the town folks who threatened the teachers. So I gave instruction that the school be closed down today so that we sit on the issue. It is still under investigation,” she said in an interview with Starr news.
