This is so inhumane

A law should be passed to make flogging students in school illegal. There are other ways to punish them

Cos

With all the flogging that has been going on for years, the country still constantly produces criminals even to the presidential level.

Some teachers , ion know, it's like they derive pleasure in flogging students

Flogging a child should be exclusive to ones parents at least



Before you quote me foolishly, read very well and see where it was alleged that he flogged the student with an IRON ROD

Male teachers always resort to physical violence whenever a female student rejects their advances.... speaking from experience

Reminds me back in the days

Moderate punishment is okay as long as it doesn't cause serious bodily harm


The fear of the teachers cain that year was enough to resist any devil telling u to do something stupid

However any punishment that involves inflicting injuries on a student should be discouraged

No wonder we churning out hook-up girls and yahoo fraudsters in millions

Discipline has been eliminated!

Some parents will even tell you that, no one can touch their child even if he is injecting Fentanyl into his body!

Interesting

Chai, they will be flogging people's children like Jesus Christ. Jesus really chopped flogging back then sha

Okay let me rephrase. Some people can abuse children sha. Mohammed really abused little girls those days o. Chai, Aisha really suffered in his hands o.

Equation balanced

Hmmm. Chai and u want better country and good youths. Even the judge that will sit on this case received lashes when he was in sch. Imagine 2m bail for just trained a child. Same amount of bail fund that people still billions got.

Unfortunately, we are eradicating discipline in our society

How sure are that it was because of advances? Always jumping into conclusion without verification.

Ah
Nice one

Do you have sense shaa
Did you read that a metal rod was used to flog the girl in question....

Metal ooo
Metal not wood

Is that not madness?
If you have children and a teacher uses metal rods to flog them, you'd like it right?

I could have served you hot buhhhh

I would just forgive your idiocy
