A shocking incident in Tamale, Northern Region, has left the community in disbelief after a teacher was arrested for physically assaulting one of his male students over a woman.
According to a report by GHOne TV, the altercation occurred last Thursday outside a neighborhood café, where 34-year-old Mr. Kwasi Amoako, a lecturer at Tamale Technical Institute, was seen arguing with his 19-year-old student, Abdul Rahman. Witnesses reported that the disagreement quickly escalated into a physical fight, with both men vying for the attention of Fatimah Musa, a first-year student at the University for Development Studies (UDS).
Amina Ibrahim, a café vendor, recalled the incident, saying, “As Mr. Kwasi got closer to Abdul, they began yelling at each other, and then it turned into punching. Watching a teacher fight with his student like that was really shocking.”
Abdul, who suffered injuries in the altercation, explained that the argument started when Mr. Kwasi accused him of trying to steal his girlfriend. “Before I could explain anything, he hit me,” Abdul said.
The fight caught the attention of onlookers who called the police, and Mr. Kwasi was arrested for disturbing the peace and assault. Inspector Kofi Mensah confirmed that investigations are ongoing.
Mr. Kwasi admitted to his actions in a brief statement, expressing regret: “I made a mistake, and I deeply regret the way I acted. It was wrong, and I am sorry to Abdul and the entire school.”
