Sodomy - Adisco Maths Teacher Dismissed

Richard Atta Panyin

A Mathematics teacher at Adisadel College (ADISCO) in Cape Coast has been dismissed by the school authorities for sodomising some of the students.

The gay teacher, , was alleged to have abused six students of the school but only one of them was bold enough to reveal his ordeal to the authorities.

The victim (name withheld) is said to have fallen sick, and when he was interrogated by doctors at the hospital where he had been sent, he unravelled the Maths teacher’s unholy activities.

According to an impeccable source at the school, Panyin, who had previously taught at St Augustine’s College, had been sacked for a similar offence and he relocated to ADISCO in late 2010.

It said the activities of Panyin, who is married with three children, came to light when the sick student identified him to the doctor attending to him, who in turn reported the teacher to the ADISCO authorities.

It indicated that Panyin appeared before a disciplinary committee set up by the school a couple of weeks ago and his dismissal was recommended after his explanations had been found to be unsatisfactory.

Efforts to contact Panyin for his version failed because he was said to have left the school compound immediately after his dismissal.

When contacted on phone, the Headmaster of ADISCO, Mr H. K.K. Graham, failed to confirm or deny the story.

He hung the phone when he realised that he was talking to the Daily Graphic.
