The Ghana Education Service (GES) has expelled eight pupils from the Upper East Region’s Chiana SHS (Senior High School) for allegedly insulting President Akufo-Addo.
Prior to the dismissal, the students had been on suspension.
According to sources, the GES’s inquiry into the event verified that the students used derogatory words toward the President.
It has thus described the actions of the students as “very undesirable, and contrary to the acceptable standards of the conduct generally required of any student in Ghana’s educational system.”
The GES had already apologized to President Akufo-Addo for the comments made by students.

“We wish to inform the general public that the students in the video have been identified as second-year students of Chiana Senior High School in the Kassena Nankana West District.
“Management of GES wishes to extend our sincerest apology to the President and the general public on behalf of the students and school”, says portions of the statement issued on November 14, 2022.
