Queen's Convent Awka, Anambra State, Nigeria, is in trouble after allegations that a gateman employed by the school management pregnant three secondary school students.
It was discovered that the students attend the college owned by the Anglican Diocese of Awka and are in the Senior School (SS2) class.
According to the report, that one of the girls who became pregnant almost committed suicide by attempting to leap from the hostel's upstairs floor, but for the intervention of her fellow students and teachers.
"I was informed that despite the college students' complaints to the school administration over the gateman's behavior, nothing was done. I don't understand why the school would even bother with the gateman, who has tattoos all over his body and wears earrings. These might be the methods he employs to trick the girls, according to the source.
Some of us did not like the concept of bringing young males between the ages of 28 to 30 years old to serve as security men in a female school, the teacher who sought being anonymous said.
Although the students wanted older men to treat them as their daughters, but the choice was made by the authorities as a whole, and their own daughters are not present. Who should we blame now that the bubble has fallen apart, and how will the parents of those students react?
Despite the fact that some staff members of the college encouraged us to seek an audience with the Most Rev. Dr. Alexander Ibezim, the Bishop of the Anglican Communion in Awka, our efforts to talk with the management of the college were unproductive because the school gate was closed, according to the report.
