Victim A, a second-year student at Obuasi Senior High Technical School (SHTS), alleges that school headmaster Zakaria Abdulai tried to silence her with 100 Ghanaian cedis after an alleged rape incident. According to the student, who is one of 16 accusers, the alleged assault took place on July 25, 2026. She recounted that she went to his official residence to retrieve clothes she had hung out to dry when he asked her to come to his bungalow to send them off on an errand.
Upon arriving, the headmaster forced himself on her, despite her resistance. After the assault, he gave her a 100 cedis note and threatened not to speak of the incident. Victim A decided not to report the matter to school authorities due to a previous experience where she was caned by a teacher, but nothing was done. The headmaster offered to leave the school if she forgave him, but she refused.
The student only reported the incident to her father after three days, more than a week after the alleged rape occurred.
