A disturbing incident occurred at Asuoso Senior High School in Offinso, where a teacher was blinded in one eye after being stabbed by a student.
The altercation reportedly began when the teacher disciplined the student for loitering during class hours. In retaliation, the student attacked the teacher, stabbing him in the eye.
The injured teacher was rushed to the hospital and is currently receiving treatment.
The incident has sparked outrage among teacher associations, who are demanding swift legal action against the student. They also voiced concerns about the increasing indiscipline in schools, linking it to the government’s policy banning corporal punishment, including caning.
