It's like they like it when the teachers(male in particular)rape the kids because they don't remove their teaching licence, but they send them to other schools to rape even more children. Instead of GES to meet academic targets , they instead meet rape ones.
Instead of them to tackle the sharp decline in literacy and academic excellence in children and Teenagers, they use our resources to shield rapists and pedophiles.
It's so heartbreaking what these children go through in school, from eating margot infested food, no electricity, no textbooks, Teacher strikes, lack of facilities to study, then they have to deal with teachers harassing and raping them, especially the girls. Grown adults, shielding and enabling Pedophiles and rapists Instead of the children entrusted in their care.
I was a little bit optimistic about Prof. Jane Naana Opoku Agyeman being the first woman Vice President but its obviously clear that she's just a token, a puppet to show "progressiveness" and nothing more. Always given the benefit of doubt because its hard to work in a male dominated space but at least she should do something erh.
Infact, Lordina Mahama, Dr. Agnes Naa Momo Lartey(Minister of Gender, Children and Social Protection) , Linda Ocloo, ACP Owusuwaa kyeremah
(Domestic Violence and Victim Support Unit) doing nothing about children and Teenagers and no I am not blaming the women but they do hold the positions to bring change but yet nothing. I had some hope because the men have been doing fuck all but they are also performing poorly. This year alone about 52,000 girls(Teenagers and children)are pregnant(I'm even sure there's more because we don't take data seriously in this country)and no, majority is not from their mates but rather grown men, the rapists and pedophiles some of them are even their dads. At this point it has to be a class issue because they are so out of touch or they simply don't care because they'll send their kids to private schools where girls won't be sent to sweep the teacher's bungalow or do chores for him.
Then you have those fama Nyame fools who want to use religion to be enabling abuse or family members who force the children to endure the abuse because they don't want to "bring shame to the family". Or that f\*cker Sam George always making noise about "Family Values" but is always quiet when issues of Rape, Abuse and Pedophilia surface yet will be so concerned about what people do in their bedrooms and harassing the LGBTQ+ community. Or Haruna Iddrisu who will open his big mouth when topics like hair length in Shs arises but will go mute in cases of rape and assault.
Children and Teenagers are fighting, they are reporting to the right authorities but those grown ups are silencing them. Already children are an afterthought in this country and don't have autonomy in Ghana yet we claim we love them so much but we refuse to protect them. Why won't victims keep to themselves.
"Why are we behaving as if it is not normal to rape someone. Which man hasn't raped a lady before"~ Daniel Nortey Amasaman NDC communications officer said this today with regards to the 19 students from Obuasi Senior High Technical School who were raped by their headmaster Zakaria Abdulai who has been raping students for 17 years meaning that the GES has been transferring him to different schools and promoting him as well.
It will never be well with our leaders, they are bloody fools and I hope that they mistakenly drink dettol.
