A private secondary school based in Ondo State on Saturday came under fire for allegedly printing the names of final year students , who didn’ t contribute towards the purchase of a television set in the school.
A Twitter user, Bhadmus Hakeem @ Bhadoosky revealed the anguish of parents of the graduating students , who discovered that the names of their children and wards, had been printed in the school ’ s send – forth magazine as debtors .
Hakeem in his Twitter thread said that the students were required to contribute the sum of 5 , 000 naira towards the purchase of a 32″ television set . “ Yesterday (20/ 7 /2018 ), a school in Arigidi Akoko , Ondo state , decided to throw over 24 parents and their children into sorrow on a day they should be the most joyous because they didn’ t pay N , 5000 to buy the school “ 32 inches TV ” .
On a graduation day, the worst thing you can ever do to a parent and child is make them sad and also document their sadness forever . How do you explain unprofessionalism of this magnitude to people ? What were (sic ) the school management trying to achieve with this stupidity?”
When PUNCH Online reached out to the school , they revealed shock at the news , saying that it was the decision of the graduating students to buy a television set for the school as a legacy of their set
According to the School Coordinator , Mr Austin Duyi , “ Hundred per cent of the information ” posted by Hakeem is “incorrect . ”
He said , “SSS three students were the ones that organised the project to help their school and leave a legacy. The person , who posted the malicious information about the school, we don’ t know . ”
When asked if the students had been the one to put the names of indebted students in the magazine, Duyi said , “In every school magazine, there is a page given to the student to allow themselves to express themselves . They are the ones who wrote everything and said it should be printed .
“ It is, therefore, a surprise to us that someone would pick up only that column of the magazine, which is between 60- 70 pages . The person didn’ t see the good aspects of the school , only the negative . We are shocked . ”
