19 students of Opoku Ware Secondary High School in the Ashanti regional capital of Kumasi have been dismissed for practicing homosexuality in the school.

According to XYZ News’ Ashanti regional correspondent, Isaac Bediako Justice, four out of the 19 students are in their first year while 15 are second and final year students.

According to him, authorities of the school decided to keep the issue out of the public domain since the students were caught some three weeks ago.

A teacher who confirmed the story stated parents of all the students involved were contacted before their children were expelled from the school.

According to reports, the students had managed to form a society on campus and regularly meet to discuss how to convince more students to practise the act.

Recently, over 34 girls were dismissed from the Wesley Girls Senior High School in Kumasi for engaging in lesbianism.
