The teacher engaged the man and asked him to go out but he refused. Not having any of the behaviour of the man, the teacher rather walked out of the class and went out of the school.
As a result, when the machete-wielding man pulled up in an attempt to attack him, he was nowhere to be found.
Subsequently, the teachers in the school boycotted teaching to show support for the colleague teacher.
After jointly working together, the Parent-Teacher Association, School Management Committee, and the chiefs and elders in the community have had the man arrested.

Meanwhile, the teachers of the school are being engaged to resume their duties on Monday, August 16, 2021.
The impunity with which parents storm schools whenever teachers attempt to correct learners leaves much to be desired. How disciplined can Ghana’s future leaders be if today they cannot be humble enough to receive counseling and corrections from teaches who seek to impart holistic knowledge and education?
The GES needs to step up efforts and put in place forward-looking policies on discipline and what parents must do should they have a divergent opinion about the discipline given to their parents in schools. It should also be a serious crime for anyone to attack a teacher in any school in Ghana. Protect the educators now!
Man with machete storms Presby school at Manya Krobo to attack teachers is the last thing teachers need to continue to be productive in our classrooms.
