District Chief Executive (DCE) for Breman Asikuma, Isaac Odoom, has said the melee caused by students of Breman Asikuma Senior High School (SHS) over the alleged battering of a student for possessing a mobile phone was unfortunate.
Mr Odoom, speaking on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem morning show on Thursday, debunked such assertions made by the students stating that checks revealed otherwise.Â
According to Mr Odoom, checks by his outfit revealed that the students had already planned to riot prior to the closure of the school due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Information we have shows that what they did was a planned thing, they had already planned to riot but was unable to do so because school was closed down. So they took advantage of the issue and misbehaved, he stated.
Speaking further, Mr Odoom bemoaned the attitude of the students, saying that their behaviour was unacceptable.Â
