O/R: GES Interdicts Okadjakrom SHTS Head Teacher For Sexual Misconduct
The Ghana Education Service (GES) has interdicted the head teacher of Okadjakrom Senior High Technical School in the Jasikan Municipality of the Oti Region.
It comes after a viral video of Mr. Mfo Richard Tibetor’s sexual misconduct with a female student.
In a press statement, the Service expressed concerns about the blatant disregard for the professional code of conduct of teachers as it characterised the action of the headmaster as “unacceptable” and “unethical”.
“Mr. Tibetor has already been interdicted and prohibited from entering the school premises pending further investigations into the matter.”
It assured parents, guardians, and the general public that the safety and protection of all students remain its topmost priority.
It further emphasised that any teacher found culpable of acts that compromise the dignity and well-being of students will face the full rigours of the law in accordance with the GES Code of Conduct.
This comes after a similar video implicating an assistant headmaster of the KNUST Senior High School with a female student.
He was interdicted earlier this week pending an investigation into the matter.
The Ministry for Gender, Children and Social Protection have set out to cause his arrest and prosecution.
