The President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has intervened in the dismissal of eight Chiana Senior High Students after GES expelled them.
The eight students – all females were dismissed for making derogatory comments against President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in a viral video.
Following their misconduct, the Management of the GES condemned the act and apologised to the President on behalf of the students, school and members of the public.
After extensive investigations into the conduct of the students, however, the Service directed the dismissal of all eight students from the school.
The decision has sparked various discussions on social media while some describe the decision as harsh others are of the opinion that it is absolutely in order.
The Ministry of Education in a letter dated January 13, 2023 said, the president has intervened on behalf the students after his attention was drawn to it.
Minister of Education, Dr. Osei Yaw Adutwum, has therefore directed authorities of the Chiana Senior High School to reinstate the students while they consider alternative disciplinary action.
