The videos, which sparked public outrage, have raised new concerns about discipline and student safety in second-cycle institutions. The deputy minister, in a statement, said that initial information available to the ministry indicates that the students involved are from two schools in the Central Region. “The Director-General of GES has since been directed to investigate the matter,” he stated. According to him, the Director-General will meet with the Central Regional Director of the Ghana Education Service (GES), on Monday, February 23, 2026. “Consequently, the culprits and perpetrators can expect the most severe sanctions,” the deputy minister urged.
