Pastor Stabs Wife Anambra
EKO HOT BLOG reports that a 30-year-old teacher has been arrested for allegedly beating an 8-year-old pupil into a coma in Anambra state.
The Anambra state government has permanently shut down Landmark School Mgbakwu in the Awka North Local Government Area.
The commissioner for Education, Prof. Ngozi Chuma-Udeh, disclosed this to reporters in her office on Monday.
She had summoned the school’s proprietor and the teacher involved, Faith Nwonye, to explain the incident that led to the brutalization of the primary two pupils.
Speaking shortly after the meeting, Chuma-Udeh explained that the school’s closure was not only based on the ugly incident but as a result of its illegality.

She expressed sadness over the development, lamenting that the chances of the victim’s survival currently in admission to the hospital were 20 percent, according to the medical Doctor.
Describing as criminals running illegal schools in the state as well as beating a child, the Commissioner warned that perpetrators were doing so at their peril.
She said: “We received this unfortunate incident from an illegal school in Mgbakwu that a child was beaten to a coma over the weekend.
“On behalf of the State Government, we invited the proprietress of the illegal school as well as the teacher who purportedly beat the child.
“We’ve handed the matter to the police for further investigations, as we await Mr Governor’s directives.
