A disturbing video circulating on social media has sparked outrage after four students were allegedly humiliated and stripped at school over unpaid fees.
In the footage seen by Muranga Newspaper, the students are seen being subjected to humiliating treatment as they are allegedly forced out of the school compound over fee arrears. Watch The Video Here
One of the teachers appears to be holding a student’s shirt while forcing her towards the school gate. During the incident, the shirt is seen tearing, leaving the student partially exposed.
The footage also appears to show other students being subjected to similar treatment. Several male teachers are seen nearby, with social media users questioning why they did not intervene to protect the students.
The disturbing incident has attracted widespread reactions, with many people condemning the alleged actions and calling on education authorities and other relevant authorities to investigate the matter.
More worrying are reports circulating on social media claiming that one of the students later died by suicide after allegedly suffering emotional trauma and embarrassment following the incident.
However, the claim about the student’s death has not been independently verified by Muranga Newspaper. Authorities would therefore need to establish the circumstances surrounding the alleged death and determine whether it was connected to the incident shown in the video.
The footage has left many people demanding justice for the affected students and calling for action against anyone found responsible for humiliating or mistreating them.
The incident has also sparked renewed debate about how schools should handle students with outstanding fees, with many arguing that financial difficulties should never be used as a reason to publicly humiliate students.
