Nkenkenso Senior High School

The Ghana Education Service (GES) has suspended Akwasi Opoku, also known as Striker, the Senior House Master of Nkenkenso Senior High School, following his involvement in an alleged curse on three female students.

The students reportedly spread rumors about Opoku, prompting him to invoke a curse on them. The curse was said to have been reversed by Opoku’s mother, a chief priest, at a cost of over GH₵3,000 to the students.

The school’s management condemned Opoku’s actions, describing them as “unprofessional” and damaging to the school’s reputation.

In a press release issued on February 24, 2026, the school stated that it had reviewed Opoku’s conduct and decided to suspend him pending further investigations.

“Your behavior in this case is considered unprofessional and has brought the name of the School and GES into disrepute,” the statement read.

The GES is conducting an investigation into the matter. The incident has sparked widespread concern about the conduct of teachers and the welfare of students in Ghanaian schools.

The Ghana Education Service is expected to take disciplinary action against Opoku if found guilty of misconduct.
