The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the incident was revealed on Wednesday by Alhaji Muhammad Abubakar-Gummi, Deputy Speaker of the State House of Assembly.
The deputy speaker, who spoke under matters of urgent public importance during the assembly’s sitting in Gusau, said that the house had received several reports on the issue. According to him, another incident at Government Female Day Secondary School, Kwatarkwashi, had led to the injury of a student in the school after the Vice Principal allegedly subjected her to heavy punishment. These problems apart from discouraging our children from acquiring education, also revealed poor attitude to work on the part of teachers in this state.
The Speaker, Alhaji Sanusi Rikiji, described the actions of the teachers as unfortunate and vowed that the assembly would not allow the matter to pass. It is part of our responsibilities to ensure effective security and good learning atmosphere for our children for their future development, therefore, we cannot allow teachers to continue harassing our children from schools.
The Speaker directed the House Committee on Education, Science and Technology to invite the commissioner to appear before it on the matter.
OMG... Teacher from the bottomless pit of hell. 😥☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

as a form of correction not punishment.

A mother will cry
ReplyDeleteSuch wickedness
Well, so many ppl support flogging until it is their child that dies. This practice should stop! Find other means of punishment such as cleaning up around the school yard, extra assignments or detention. Some of these children have unknown heart conditions or are not eating well because of money being tight, it doesn't take anything to kill them from flogging because they are already weak.
ReplyDeleteSome teachers should take it easy with flogging, inasmuch as some students are so stubborn, they should let them be and focus on the responsibly ones.
ReplyDeleteToo bad!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat's happening???
end time teacher, the last time i flog when i as teaching was when a parent came to mess me up cos i flog her son and mistakenly hit his eyes with cane, since then i learnt my lesson and stop flogging anyone instead i give them punishment. thank God am not into teaching since 2010.
