Ondo Vice Principal Brutally Attacked for Stopping Exam Malpractice—A Shocking Assault on Education

When Protecting Integrity Turns Dangerous

Education is meant to be a pillar of integrity, but in Ondo State, that ideal was violently shattered. A Vice Principal, Mr. Rotifa, was brutally beaten by hired thugs after doing his job—stopping a student from cheating in the ongoing WASSCE.

The Incident—A Parent’s Rage, A Teacher’s Pain

👨‍🏫 Mr. Rotifa confiscated a student’s Android phone during the exam, ensuring compliance with WAEC regulations.

🔥 The student’s mother threatened to retaliate, warning teachers not to interfere with her son’s cheating in the upcoming mathematics paper.

🚨 Thugs invaded the school area, dragged Rotifa from a police van, and beat him mercilessly before he was rushed to the hospital.

A Society Losing Respect for Educators?

This attack raises disturbing questions:

⚠️ How safe are teachers when enforcing rules?

⚠️ Should parents support integrity or fight against it?

⚠️ What message does this send to future students?

The Ondo State government has vowed to bring the attackers to justice, but the fear remains—will teachers continue to face threats for upholding the law?
