Oyo State Government has suspended a female pupil of Jericho High School, Ibadan, vowing to take further action.
The Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology, Rahman Abiodun Abdu-Raheem, gave the directive yesterday after a meeting with key education stakeholders in Ibadan.
Expressing the displeasure of the government over an incident, which led to her suspension, Adbu-Raheem said the pupil, in company with her mother, recently invaded the school with thugs and assaulted a male pupil, teachers and other parents during a Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) meeting.
The mayhem was said to have been ignited by the girl’s mother and other accomplices, thereby causing tension in the school.
Abdu-Raheem said the government is taking further action on the pupil, to act as a deterrent to others.
He called for caution, stressing that the Governor Seyi Makinde administration had zero tolerance for impunity.
