A meeting is set for 9am. People start arriving at 10:30 and laugh “Ghana time.”

You enter a government office and the person being paid to serve you behaves like you interrupted their wedding.

A trotro driver stops in the middle of the road to pick passengers and everybody behind him must understand.

Someone throws pure water rubber into the gutter, then complains when Accra floods.

A politician promises ten things, delivers two, and supporters say “But the previous government delivered one.”

We have created excuses for almost everything. Then we travel somewhere else, see people respecting time, rules and basic standards and say “Ei, these people are serious.” Smh

It’s 2026, HIV isn’t that killer anymore. Go and get tested and start treatment if you are positive. Don’t let HIV kill you oo it’s 2026.

Thank you! A lot of these teenagers who’re hyper sexual are also coming from abuse. I’ve worked a lot with teenagers and when you take time to investigate, even the most “spoilt” amongst them have been exposed to sex very early by family members and it’s all they know. People are failing to understand that even when a student stands before you naked, you are the adult with sense and life experience, if your job to set boundaries where they know none. So many boys move to me in my DM’s all day, and I’ve never had the mind to encourage them because I KNOW BETTER.

Like you I have first hand experience with this from teaching during my national service, and it forced me to think about the deeper problem.

I was about 22 at the time, and some of the JHS students would make comments like, “Sir, this weekend I want to come to your house oo,” and I’d shut it down immediately. One time, I overheard a student make a comment in twi that essentially translated to, “This teacher he’s even a small boy and sees himself like that,” and that really put things into perspective for me.

It made me realize that a lot of these kids have been groomed by older people in their communities for so long that it feels normal to them. The issue isn’t about how children dress or present themselves. That doesn’t solve this. The problem runs deeper and it always circles back to the adults in their communities.

A child having a crush on an adult isn’t strange. That’s part of adolescence. But the responsibility is always on the adult. The moment you indulge it, you’ve failed that child. And beyond that, your actions don’t just affect that one moment, you condition them to see that behavior as acceptable, which only makes them more vulnerable to other predators.

That’s why this isn’t something you fix by telling kids to behave differently. It’s something adults have to take responsibility for, by setting and maintaining clear boundaries every single time.

Chale what is Gh Police and NCCE doing about the pedophilia in our country?? People are refusing to obey the laws cos to them it doesn't make sense. Can some lawyer on the tl start a video series explaining the crimes people can be arrested for cos some people's takes yi de3😭💔

[Otuo @Brefo20]

Me deɛ I dont care. My point is, no teacher should sleep with these SHS students.

[askofEsinam!🤭🇬🇭 @fenyo_oo]

Tbvh I hate how people have reduced the pedo issue to a "wayward child" problem. Think back to your teenage shs/jhs years. Were you really informed and mature enough to fully understand the consequences of every choice you made? Looking back as a grown adult now don't you.....

[Enoch Δ @agyeitah]

They could walk naked.
Send you nudes pictures.
Cry that if you don't have sex with them they'd die, they could even break down and not eat for days because you as a teacher turned down their advances and none of the above is reason enough — nothing is reason enough to sleep with a student under your care.

And if they did all that, the only person who bears blame is only you.

It's not their fault, it's your fault.

Why is this so hard?

[Emmanuel Brempong Akosah @TheAkosahEmma]

The point is that a teacher is NOT ALLOWED to be in a relationship and sex with students under his/her authority. That’s just it, the bone of contention is not about the girl’s age and consent that she may have given or advances she may have made at the teacher.

[🦋Afua🦋 @___Afuah]

Children cannot consent to sex!
Children cannot consent to sex!
Children cannot consent to sex!
Children cannot consent to sex!
Children cannot consent to sex!
Children cannot consent to sex!

And the last time I checked, children can be any gender, mind you.

[Nickyy 😔 @Replay_remix]

Lashing school kids for not paying their school fees was one of the MANY senseless things our teachers used to do.

Are the kids the ones responsible for paying their fees? Ah
