Are the masters of Sofoline thugs or teachers? Are the University College
of Education-Winneba and the University of Cape Coast - the traditional
teacher training universities - that bad?
Prempeh.org has uncovered some serious evidence that will soon cast doubt
about the integrity of every teacher at Prempeh College and when this bombshell
drops it will send shock-waves throughout the whole country.
16 year old Eric Goloe, Ramseyer House, representing Ghana in the World Youth Athletics
in Morocco. Goloe is Ghana's fastest youth but he continually suffers on Prempeh campus
from Mr. Atiemo's constant verbal abuse. Even the worst kind of gutter language and
disdainful blue-collar
expressions (such as aboa, kwasea, w'agyimi, wonni adwen?, wotiri awu?), which are
only fit for the motor-park or lorry
station are
directed at him every day.
Last year, Ghana's fastest youth was taken from Ramseyer House and asked to go to
Morocco to represent the country in the World Youth Athletics Championship. Prempeh's
tireless sports master Mr. Lartey was asked to accompany him.
Goloe entered the competition in North Africa and kept qualifying from round to round.
However, when he reached the semifinal stage and was about to continue his outstanding
performance, Goloe was informed of rumours that
had broken out back home that he did
not make it past the first round. This shocking rumour enfeebled the 16-year old to the
point that he could not control himself. How could people be so callous? He felt discouraged
and lost in that round.
Prempeh.org has now found out some information that even Goloe does not know: at least
one Prempeh master sent that ridiculous rumour to the radio stations just to make his own student fail.
Why are our current crop of teachers so barbaric? Do we need headmasters Osae and
Sackey to come back from retirement to give them lessons in the art of mentoring children?
Since Headmaster Owusu-Achiaw is the Vice-Chairman of Schools & Colleges Sports and his staff
does not respect athletes, does it mean that his staff gives him no respect?
In fact, these teachers have not only betrayed Prempeh but they have also betrayed Ghana as a whole.
For a medal that could have gone to the country never materialized.
Are these thugs or teachers?
In the past, not only were Prempeh masters regular visitors to watch Prempeh games and athletes, but
the atypical teachers, such as the late Bannor Mensah of
blessed memory, stood in the Prempeh
student section and sang songs with us. Mathemastics master Bannor Mensah, also known
as Changes, helped Prempeh students compose lyrics.
What do we have at Prempeh today? Thugs?
