A teacher at Bole Senior High School (SHS) at the center of an unethical sex video scandal has suffered another major setback as the Ghana Education Service (GES) has suspended his salary.
The latest punitive measure follows the teacher’s alleged failure to report to duty after the scandal broke, prompting the GES to halt his remuneration and refer the matter to the Ghana Police Service for his arrest.
Speaking to the media on Tuesday, July 1, 2026, the Director-General of GES, Professor Ernest Kofi Davis, confirmed that the teacher had already been interdicted prior to the salary suspension.
Prof. Davis explained that the Service is now collaborating with the police to apprehend the teacher so he can face simultaneous criminal prosecution and internal disciplinary proceedings.
He described the alleged conduct as a serious breach of professional standards, stressing that the GES will invoke the strictest sanctions available under its code of conduct.
“We want to pursue legal action against the staff involved and also take him through our established processes under the code of conduct so that, at the end of the day, we apply the rules as stipulated,” Prof. Davis stated.
He emphasized that the GES is determined to make an example of the case. “We will apply the toughest sanctions to serve as a deterrent because we want our school environment to be safe. Teachers who expose children the way we saw in the video have no place in GES,” he added.
