The Missionaries Brought Bullying by edgeklaus(m): 2:02pm On Dec 13, 2017

Deverstated by noise that filled the air, the head mistress took her Cane from the side bench and hastily walked to where the two boys were and without listening to what had happened, she flogged them mercilessly and dragged them both with their ears into her office. John and Paul had engaged in a fight or rather, what seemed like a fight.paul has continuously been picked on by the older boys in his class especially John who was the oldest of them and he tried to defend himself today but as usual, things turned against him.
The head mistress was not willing to hear what either of them had to say so Paul was not able to narrate his ordeal. After three hours of punishment she finally let them go forcing them to make a promise that what has happened won't repeat itself again.

Life in a boarding house could be fun for most students, but for some very few ones, life in a boarding house could be 'hell' . The idea the missionaries probably had when they brought the idea of boarding house to Nigeria was to create an environment of learning and closeness for diverse kind of people to build understanding between various ethnics. It was a perfect idea at the time but various factors were overlooked and a major factor was the case of 'superiority complex'.
My dad told me that during his boarding days, once you come in as a fresh student, the school management assigns you to a senior who would serve as your master through out the academic year. You are mandated to pick Up his dirty laundry every day to wash them and not only that, you were required to make his bed every day. This probably doesn't sound like a bad idea but the problem is it's adverse effect.
Certain Individuals have certain problems with their education so they don't start early and by the time them get to to start, they end up being the oldest in their class and therefore they see other students as inferior owing to the fact that they are younger and this results into bullying(although this is just a case, there are many other cases which result into bullying) .When this older individuals get into boarding schools and see their age mates being served by the younger students, they tend to get vexed and try to subject their class mates to serve them and this mostly results into bullying which traumatises the younger student and affects them in several negative ways.
