A teacher at the Adisadel College in Cape Coast in the Central Region has together with a student been sacked from the school after they were caught engaging in a homosexual act.
The teacher, whose name was given as just Mr. Panyin and the student whose name has been withheld were caught doing their own thing in one of the halls in the school.
One of the teachers (name withheld) confirmed the story said the school’s Council of Governors issued the marching orders after they established that the teacher is gay.
The teacher (name withheld) narrated that one of the students informed authorities after the teacher was caught with one student in the act.
According to him, the Mr. Panyin has been spotted on several occasions caressing testicles of students in and out of the classroom with some student finding the situation as unpleasant for the school.
Some who spoke with the teacher (name withheld) said they suspected the teacher to gay but they were afraid to disclose to authorities until one of them eventually reported the issue to the council of governors.
Reports say the student and Mr. Panyin were sacked after council of governors stated that they cannot accept such people in the school environment.
According to the teacher, Mr. Panyin was transferred to the school early this year adding that he also used to engage in the same practice at his previous school, St Augustine’s College also in Cape Coast and that had even led to disagreements between him and his wife.
Effort to reach the Headmaster of Adisadel College, Mr. Graham for confirmation of the story proved futile.

PSYCHOLOGIST SAYS IT WILL BE SCIENTIFICALLY DIFFICULT TO PROVE SPIRITUAL INFLUENCE IN SEXUAL ENCOUNTERS
A psychologist at the University of Ghana, Emmanuel Asiampong says it will be difficult for scientists to test the authencity of some pastors using spiritual powers to engage in sexual activities with members of their congregation.
He explains that with our traditional African setting it’s possible to have sexual intercourse with someone through spiritual means but that can be difficult to substantiate in the scientific world.
Mr. Emmanuel Asiampong was commenting on a recent story in which a woman had claimed that a pastor had had sexual intercourse without her being aware.
He says women who go to their pastors for ‘prayers’ should not be blamed too much because sometimes economic hardships and depression can push them into doing so.
In a related development, a pastor at the Word Miracle Church International, Rev Noah Twum says the recent abuse of some women by pastors is a clear indication of some of the signs that the end of the world is near.
He says people should not be surprised to hear of such issues but should be steadfast in the Lord because those pastors are goats in the midst of sheep.

GHANAIANS URGED TO TAKE INTEREST IN WILL MAKING
An Accra based legal practitioner, Yaw Anokye Frimpong has revealed that given the importance of will making, it behooves on all Ghanaians to prepare their will before they die notwithstanding the size of their estate.
According to lawyer Frimpong, making a will helps to avoid the fragmentation of one’s estate when he or she is no more, adding that it also allows the deceased to bequeath to persons other than his or her family relations, an estate of his or her choice.
But a cross section of Ghanaians who spoke to Adom news was of the view that they were young to do one or they had no properties to share in their will. We bring you some excerpts.
But the lawyer disagrees and argues that making a will also gives one the peace of mind to make the world a better place than he or she came to meet it.
Lawyer Frimpong encourage Ghanaians to cultivate the habit of making will so that it prevents unnecessary disputes that normally characterizes in families.
