The Oyo State Government has suspended a female student of Jericho High School, Ibadan, vowing to take further action on the matter in due course.
The Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology, Rahman Abiodun Abdu-Raheem, stated this on Tuesday after a meeting with key education stakeholders in Ibadan.
Expressing the displeasure of the Oyo State Government over the incident, which led to her suspension, Adbu-Raheem disclosed that the student in company of her mother recently invaded the school with hefty thugs and miscreants, assaulting a male student, teachers and other parents during an ongoing Parents Teachers Association meeting.
The mayhem was said to have been ignited by the girl’s mother and other accomplices, thereby causing tension in the school.
Abdu-Raheem noted that the state government will be taking further action to serve as a deterrent to other unguided parents and wards.
He appealed for caution, emphasising that the present government has zero tolerance for impunity, while charging students, parents and all stakeholders to take advantage of Governor Seyi Makinde’s free qualitative education programmes.
