School Principal, Teachers Suspended For Beating Students In Nassarawa by theJournalng(m): 3:15pm On Jan 19, 2018
The Principal of Government Science
Secondary School, and three other officials
have been given a one month suspension
for meting out corporal punishment to
some students.
Mr Tijjani Ahmed, Nassarawa state
Commissioner of Education, confirmed this,
saying that the state government had
banned corporal punishments in public
schools across the 13 L.G.A and 18
developmental areas of the state.
He said that the decision was made after a
video showing some students of GSS,
Nassarawa-Egbon being beaten by teachers
went viral on social media.
He said, “We have formed an investigation
committee to monitor and report to the
ministry in one week to enable the ministry
to take a decisive action.
“Already, three staff members of the school
including the Principal have been given a
one-month suspension over their
involvement in the corporal punishment
pending the report of the committee set up
by the ministry.”
Ahmed also said that the ministry had
written to all public schools informing their
managements of the ban on corporal
punishment.
He further warned teachers meting out
corporal punishment to students to desist
‘as anyone caught would face disciplinary
action.’
The education commissioner stated that
“even if teachers would want to punish
students for any offence, it should be minor
punishment.”
He added that the government would
continue to respond to the challenges
facing the education sector in the state.
