Police were called to Obuasi Senior High Technical School (SHTS) in the early hours of Wednesday after students assaulted the school’s headmaster following claims circulating on campus.

According to information, some students alleged that they saw the headmaster carrying out an act they believed was linked to ritual activities on the school campus during the night.

The claim, which has not been independently verified, quickly spread among students and reportedly triggered the violent attack.

Videos circulating on social media appear to show the headmaster with blood on his face while being assaulted by a group of students.

The incident is reported to have occurred at midnight., prompting police officers to rush to the school to restore order and rescue the headmaster from the angry crowd.

The condition of the headmaster has not yet been officially disclosed, and it is unclear whether any students have been arrested in connection with the assault.

As of the time of publication, neither the Ghana Police Service, the Ghana Education Service, nor the management of Obuasi Senior High Technical School had issued an official statement explaining the circumstances surrounding the incident.
