They then returned to the school and enlisted the help of their fellow students for a retaliatory attack.

Given the dicey nature of the situation, and on the advice of REGSEC, we decided to close the school as a precautionary measure to protect the students.
We have arranged for buses to take them to their respective destinations. Those from Ho have already returned home. Four buses have been dispatched to Accra, while some MPs have provided additional support, allowing more buses to leave for Kpando.
