Authorities at the Tempane Senior High School (SHS) in the newly-created Tempane District of the Upper East Region, say measures have been put in place to offer counseling to female students who were captured in the video hooting at President Akufo-Addo and Member of Parliament (MP), Joseph Dindiok Kpemka, under the supervision of Joshua Akamba.
Daily Guide gathered that the girls have been subjected to ridicule and feel ashamed of their behaviour since many students and teachers on campus hold the MP in high esteem.
On Thursday, October 11, Daily Guide interacted with the students over the conduct the said students.
Three young girls, all first-year students, though there are challenges in the school, they are focused on their books to secure better future for themselves.
Asked whether they know some of the girls in the video, they all answered in the affirmative.
“There is one of them in my class. She is very quiet and disciplined, and since the NDC man and his people made the girls to disrespect the President and the MP, she has not been fine again. People have seen the video and she is now feeling shy.”
Another student said: “There are bedbugs, but as for me I keep my corner, my mattress and my bed sheet clean, so they don’t get me like other girls. If we clean our dorm frequently the bedbugs will reduce. I think we are many so some students keep their areas dirty, that is why the bedbugs have been increasing.”
They admitted that the dormitories are congested, but were hopeful the situation would soon improve with the completion of the Girls’ dormitory by government.
In line with a directive by the Regional Office of the Ghana Education Service (GES), the Assistant Headmaster in charge of Administration at the Tempane SHS, Alhaji Issaka Charles Abugri, declined to comment further on the matter.
“The school’s counseling unit is up to task and would offer counseling to the traumatized students.”
Meanwhile, the Member of Parliament for Tempane Constituency, Joseph Dindiok Kpemka, who visited the school on that Thursday, said Joshua Akamba of the NDC has done a great disservice to the children and should appologize to their parents, the school and the entire country, for influencing the innocent children negatively.
“I don’t think the children would have done what they did if they had not been misled and probably compelled by Joshua Akamba to hoot at the president and I. In this area, children are trained to respect the elderly.”
“Anyway, the government is doing a lot to improve infrastructure in the school. Even my own contribution to the school is enough for the children to praise and not hoot at me, as Akamba misled the students to do in that propaganda video,” Mr Kpemka said.
“The situation in the school has normalized and students and teachers are looking forward to the next action to be taken in relation to the headmaster, Dominic Ndegu Amolale, after the Committee’s investigations and report.”

Instead of addressing the needs of the school, you want to do what, counsel the girls, like serious, this government really needs rehabilitation....they are so myopic....will the counseling kill the bed bugs and deconjection in the schools, will it built shelter for the students...fellow ghanaians, let kick this government out of power....l don't care who ever wins the 2020 election, but the npp must be kicked out
Ras Tony, do you understand trauma? go and find out from the dictionary before you come here with your ign*orance. You are the ones who make Ghana and Africa a joke because you attribute yourselves to be educated but don't understand education and that make your education meaningless! Do you think it is easy for students who behaved st*upidly and out of that being teased at school? do you think it is easy for those first year students who are enjoying free SHS because their parents dont have and were among those Akamba used st*upidly to f000*00lishly behave like him ? are you people going to pay their fees if they are sacked from school and do you know the warning and threats their parents have giving them? ndc are damn evils,sometimes ndc become so much possessed with evil things that even Satan ignore them and disassociate himself from them. Such are the people Rawlings never knew but have hijacked his party by using juju and voodoo ! No country with some people giving the chance and are idol worshippers has that country succeeded. India for that matter Asians are not dirty and uncivilized like some Africans who do everything in dirty and hateful ways so operating with wicked and callous evil spirits. Ndc will rot in opposition.
we are not serious in Ghana Counseling for what
I said it. and I'm right. I said because Akamba comes from a dirty home he thinks bedbugs are something they can use to get power, if that guy is not very much with bedbugs he would have felt pity and rather seek the service of exterminators to go to the school to spray, but as dirty as where he was born he thought it was a fun. Ndcfuo gyimie no ebi nono ! If Mahama visit any school in the Eastern, Central, Ashanti, BA and the Western ,I entreat the students to also hoot at him because he is the most us*less person ever ascended to our presidency. If he thinks of the Ghanaian child he wouldn't build schools in the b*ush, with no idea of providing them with free transport. Ne nkwas*ea akeka no ! if he is on a course to get ndc flagbearer position he should stick to that and tell those delegates why he is better than the 12 and stop his bu*llsh*it of attacking our President and our Vice President. Nana is civil, he is cultured so has no time for vagab*onds who talk anyhow. "Yes" that's why anywhere he goes he is received in high esteem not mahama paper a disgraceful person but has no shame. Mahama was reduced to the gallery in Scotland parliament but my President,the people's choice receives awards anywhere he goes. Is Akufo Addo your class the name should ring a bell in your ears ! A president who felt ashamed to introduce his own mother to the world when she was alive but announced her death when she passed away ! JJ Rawlings never felt ashamed to introduce his mother Aunty Vic. Hi mom ! We knew of President Akufo Addo's mother Aunty Sylvia when she was the 2nd lady and we know of my Vice President Dr Alhaji Prophet Bawumiah papabi's mother who is an old student of Wesley Girls High School. John mahama hid his mother but wouldn't stop disturbing our ears. Your mother died when you were president but nobody knew her, Paa Kwesi Amissah Arthur's mother was known. Give us a break ! we've seen why you are greedy, why you want to grab everything from Ghana to build your empire! Tafiakwa! it will never happen !
LOOKING AT THIS AKAMBA NATURE, YOU DONT NEED AN ANGEL OR SOOTHSAYER TO TELL YOU THAT THIS MAN IS A F00UL.
Akamba is actually one of the dirtiest member of NDC. A pot calling a kettle black indeed.
