Teachers at the Kobedi AME Zion Primary and Junior High School in the Sunyani West Municipality of the Bono Region has boycotted classes indefinitely, since Monday May 18, 2026, leaving the school children to roam around the Township.

During a visit to Kobedi, near Chiraa, Sompa FM learnt from the community members that action of the teachers followed the sudden deaths of the late Madam Glady Dorlo Batinge, the school’s head teacher, and another teacher.

At around 0900 hours, Sompa FM noticed that all the classrooms were locked with padlocks, and no teacher, pupil or student was sighted at the school compound.

A resident who spoke to our correspondent Solomon Afriyie explaining that the demise of the teachers happened after a student invoked curses on the school authority for allegedly extorting money from them.
