A group of enraged students at Nkwanta Senior High School in the Oti district vandalised many school properties, including a school bus, after teachers launched a search operation to collect cell phones from students.
Headmaster Solomon Bagman, who was at home when the incident occurred at 8 p.m. (Tuesday evening), immediately called security officials to intercede.
He was particularly shocked that some of the items seized included knives.
The headmasters wondered where the students got the money to buy the knives, pliers and other ‘sophisticated gadgets’.
Solomon Bagman further disclosed that unprescribed attire was also seized during the search, which the students wore when they wanted to sneak to town.
The Municipal Chief Executive, Joseph Awal Antwi, has urged students and teachers to remain calm as security officers take charge of the situation.
Meanwhile, municipal education director Jonathan Korsinah has directed teachers to resume courses while a resolution to the matter is sought.
