GES interdict O’Reilly, Ghana SHS Headmistresses Over Unauthorised Monies

The Ghana Education Service (GES) has directed Madam Patience Naki Mensah, Headmistress of Ghana Senior High School (SHS), Koforidua, to step aside over the sale of unauthorised items in the school.

The headmistress is accused of selling unauthorised items, including ceremonial cloth and tracksuits, to Form One students.

“It has come to the notice of Management of Ghana Education Service that, there is an unauthorised sale of the following items to the Form One students reporting to school: Ceremonial Cloth GHS 200. 00; Track suites GHS 250. 00, and other items.”

“You are, therefore, being asked to step aside with effect from December 07, 2023, for further investigation to be conducted into the allegation,” a press release from the GES signed by Mrs Ivy Asantewaa Owusu, Eastern Regional GES Director, said.

In a related development, the Ghana GES has interdicted Ms Nadia Lartechoe Annan, Headmistress of O’Reilly Senior High School (SHS), in Accra over the collection of unauthorised monies.

The GES directed the headmistress to step aside from her office over the collection of unauthorised monies as part of the admission process of fresh students.

This is contained in a press release from the GES signed by Mr Stephen Abamfo, Greater Accra Regional GES Director.

According to the statement, the directive was to pave way for investigations into the matter as the act was against the code of ethics of the Service.

The statement directed her to handover all property of the school to the Ledzokuku Municipal Director of Education to take oversight responsibility of the school in the interim.
