Teachers abandon school as community use classrooms for open defaecation

Teachers abandon school as community use classrooms for open defaecation
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Bontibor D.A Basic School in the Nkwan­ta-South Municipality of the Oti Region, has been closed down for the past three weeks because some unscrupulous members of the community have turned the classrooms into a place for open defaecation.

The situation has compelled teachers to abandon teaching thereby forcing the children to stay out of the classrooms.

The negative development, where community members turned the classrooms into public toilets was reported to the Nkwan­ta-South Municipal Directorate of Education (NSMDE), and the decision was supported by the Directorate.

The Nkwanta-South Munic­ipal Director of Education, Mr Jonathan Korsina who briefed the media on the development at Nk­wanta said, it was time community members showed greater respect for teachers in their respective communities, and to protect them at all times.

Mr Korsina said teachers formed one of the important workforce of the country, who carried out their lawful duties diligently, and needed to be encouraged and respected rather than distracted in the dis­charge of their duties.

He said it was clear that the community had taken the teachers for granted, and they would not tolerate any act of gross disrespect towards them, saying the Municipal Directorate had given the chief and elders of Bontibor to demon­strate high commitment to provide conducive teaching and learning environment, and to protect the teachers before they would return to the classroom again.

According to Mr Korsina, as part of conditions that would make teachers of Bontibor Basic School to return to the classroom, the chief and elders should write and signed a letter to assure the directorate that members of the community would not defecate in the classroom again as well as to ensure the safety of the teachers.

He said teachers at Bontibor Ba­sic School were dedicated to their work over the years, and could practice the teaching profession in an atmosphere of peace and tran­quillity, saying teachers like other workers needed support from the community where they work.

Mr Korsina stressed that teachers of Bontibor Basic School would not return to the classroom until the chief and elders submit a written document that would serve as evidence to guarantee the safety of teachers, saying the chief and elders would have the choice of ensuring that the teachers returned to the classroom or would turn the classrooms into public toilet.

A 69-year-old woman, Madam Anita Appoh said defaecating in classrooms in the community was alien to the people because the community shared a toilet facility in the school meant for pupils and students, and the school authorities did not object to them sharing the facility with the school.

She said the negative develop­ment tarnished the image of the Bontibor community, and said she did not understand why people would refuse to use the toilet and rather preferred defaecating in the classroom, saying even class one pupils whose property the commu­nity shared with them would not defecate in their class.

Mr Appoh said the condition given by the Municipal Director­ate of Education for the chief and elders to write a letter to the office, promising that there would not be any more defecation in the classrooms, to her it was difficult because if the chief and elders gave such an assurance to the municipal directorate of education and people again defecate in the classrooms, would lead to total closure of the school in future.

The Assemblyman for Bonti­bor and Salifu Electoral Area, Mr Justice Ameji expressed concern about the development, which he said started affecting the education of the children because the Junior High School (JHS) students missed a national mock examination within the period to prepare them towards their final examination.

Mr Ameji said the Bontibor community had put in place mea­sures to prevent future occurrences of open defecation in classrooms, which included the provision of electricity to the school and would engage security in the school after the school closed until the following day to ensure that people would no longer defecate in the classroom.

However, when the Nkwan­ta-South Municipal Chief Exec­utive (MCE), Mr Bright Lenwah was contacted as to whether the as­sembly have plans to provide toilet facility for the Bontibor commu­nity or plans to fence the school, he declined to speak and asked this reporter to see the Assemblyman for the area, and the Municipal Director of Education.
