Two Aduman SHS Teachers Arrested and Interdicted Over Alleged Sexual Assault Against Male Student

Two teachers of Aduman Senior High School in the Ashanti Region have been arrested by the police and interdicted by the Ghana Education Service (GES) following allegations of sexual misconduct involving a male student.

The teachers have been identified as Isaac Yankey and Palance Kwakye. Their arrest and interdiction were confirmed by the GES in a statement issued on Thursday, November 12, 2026, and signed by its Head of Public Relations, Daniel Fenyi.

According to the Service, management received reports alleging that the two teachers had engaged in sexual misconduct involving a male student of the school. The matter was subsequently referred to the police for investigation, leading to the arrest of the two staff members.

The GES also announced that both teachers had been interdicted pending the outcome of the investigations. The administrative action is intended to ensure that the matter is properly investigated while the relevant authorities establish the circumstances surrounding the allegations.

The development follows a public appeal by the student’s mother, who reportedly spoke about the alleged abuse during an interview on Lawson TV on November 10. She called for justice for her son and raised concerns about the circumstances surrounding the incident.

Meanwhile, the GES disclosed that the alleged victim had been provided with psychosocial support to safeguard his emotional and psychological well-being.

The Service assured parents, students and the general public that it remained committed to protecting learners and maintaining safe and supportive environments in schools.

The two teachers remain subject to police investigations, and the allegations against them have not yet been established in court. They are presumed innocent unless proven guilty through due legal process.
