A teacher with name only known as Sir Amable at the St. Stephens Senior High and Technical School (STEPSS) in Akyem Asiakwa near Kyebi in the Eastern Region has given a male student 25 lashes at the back for assaulting another fellow student.
Classicnewsgh captured leaked video captured of the teacher (Sir Amable) whipping the student who was only wearing shorts and lying in a push-up position in the open while other students watching with some of them applauding the student for not crying.
The senior housemaster reportedly flogged the student for assaulting another student at the boarding house leading to hospitalization of the student.
The punishment adopted by the Senior Housemaster has however sparked uproar considering that corporal punishment has been banned in schools by the Ghana Education Service.
The leadership of the old Students Association of the school has engaged the School authorities on the matter in a crunch meeting.
The headmaster of STEPSS said he was unaware of the incident promising to investigate.
Some students alleged that the senior housemaster is notorious for mercilessly lashing students.
The students were flogged by the Senior House Master for mocking him.
