He said three second year students were alleged to have smoked Indian Hemp on the school compound while four final students and a first year student were also spotted drinking alcohol at a bar in Town. Two other final year student were arrested and handed over to the school authorities by a palm wine taper for harvesting half-bucket full of his palm-wine whiles another student stabbed two of his colleagues with a knife without any provocation .

The Assembly Members expressed its shock about the behaviour of the students especially at a time when the government and other stakeholders were investing huge sums of money towards the provision of infrastructural facilities including class-room blocks, equipment and others to the only Senior High School in the District. 13 May. 08
