Sex-for-fees hits Ejisuman SHS


Students of the Ejisuman Senior High School (SHS) in the Ashanti Region have allegedly been at the receiving end of incessant pressure from teachers to have sex with them. 

This was disclosed by a 21-year-old female student name withheld of the school in an interview with Kwame Adinkra on Kumasi-based Abusua FM. According to her, teachers blackmail students who owe school fees into sleeping with them by threatening to either sack or prevent them from writing their final exams if they do not give in to their sexual demands. Some of the students, due to the inability of their parents to pay the school fees, end up succumbing to the pressures by having sex with their teachers. 

Recounting her own experience, the third-year student disclosed that one of her teachers had had sex with her for similar reasons but failed to pay some GHC100 she owed in fees as agreed. . In my quest to pay my fee arrears, I once slept with one of the teachers when the school authorities threatened to sack those of us in arrears. Because I had no one to pay my school fees, I agreed to have sex with him when he approached me with the request. He threatened to ensure that I’m sacked if I ever revealed the details of our sexual affair to anyone,” she said.


Meanwhile the Ghana Education Service (GES) has commenced investigations into the allegations which have been denied by the teachers. The GES is expected to send a delegation to the school to ascertain the veracity or otherwise of the claims by the student just like it did in the Edumanu sex video scandal and punished the headmaster for his conduct.
