Also interdicted are Sylvanus Awunyo, the school’s storekeeper, and Samuel Kwame Ampeh, the driver, over allegations of diverting 100 cartons of tinned tomatoes meant for student meals.

The GES announced that the interdiction, carried out in line with Section 8, Clauses (i-v) of the GES Code of Conduct, is to ensure the accused do not interfere with ongoing investigations.

The alleged diversion came to public attention on Friday, January 17, 2025, following a citizen’s arrest by Apostle Ekatso, the founder and leader of Apostle Ekatso Ministry. 

According to him, he intercepted a taxi loaded with cartons of tinned tomatoes on the Sokode Gborgame-Akrofu road in the Volta Region.

In a video shared on social media on Friday, January 17, 2025, the apostle narrated that he saw a Tsito SHTS-branded bus offloading the cartons into a bush. 

Shortly after, a taxi, an Opel Astra with registration number GR 5051 U, arrived to load the goods.

“I stopped my car when I saw what was happening,” he explained in the video.

“The goods, meant for students, were being offloaded in the bush for the taxi driver to pick up. This kind of sabotage is unacceptable.”

Police officers from the Ho Central Police Station were called to the scene, where they arrested the taxi driver and impounded the goods.

In a statement, the GES emphasised that the interdiction of the three officials was a necessary step to ensure accountability.

They assured the public that appropriate measures would be taken following the conclusion of the investigation.
