A delegation led by Gender, Children and Social Protection Minister Dr Agnes Naa Momo Lartey and the Director-General of the Ghana Education Service (GES) is expected to visit Obuasi as authorities prepare to reopen Obuasi Senior High Technical School to continuing students.
The visit comes nearly three months after the school was closed following violent student protests over allegations of sexual misconduct involving its headmaster, Zakaria Abdulai, who has since been suspended.
The allegations involve 19 female students and were brought to public attention through an investigative documentary by JoyNews journalist Manasseh Azure Awuni titled Inside the Dreaded Headmaster’s Bungalow.
The revelations triggered widespread concern about student safety and welfare, while the subsequent unrest disrupted teaching and learning at the school.
The planned visit is part of efforts to prepare continuing students to resume academic activities after the prolonged closure.
