Gateman Allegedly Impregnates Three Students at Queens Convent School in Anambra

Awka, Anambra State - Queen's Convent School in Awka, Anambra State, has been embroiled in a serious controversy following allegations that a gateman employed by the school has impregnated three students in the secondary school.

The affected students are reported to be in the Senior Secondary School 2 (SS2) class, and the school is under the ownership of the Anglican Diocese of Awka.

Sources reveal that one of the girls, who is allegedly impregnated, came close to attempting suicide by trying to jump from an upstairs window of the school hostel. Fortunately, her classmates and teachers intervened to prevent this tragic outcome.

Concerns had reportedly been raised by students regarding the gateman's behavior, but it is alleged that the school authorities failed to take any action in response to these complaints. Some sources have expressed shock at the school's decision to employ a male gateman, given the nature of the institution.

One teacher from the school, speaking on the condition of anonymity, mentioned that there were reservations among the staff about hiring young men, aged around 28 to 30, as security personnel in an all-female school. Many had preferred older security personnel who could treat the students with paternal care. However, the decision to hire the gateman was made collectively by the school authorities.

The allegations have raised concerns among parents, leaving questions about responsibility and accountability in the wake of these unsettling revelations.

As the situation unfolds, authorities are expected to conduct a thorough investigation into the matter to ascertain the facts and take appropriate actions.
