John Senfuma, a teacher at Hillside College Mityana, has been arrested by the police for allegedly attempting to engage in inappropriate activities with a female student at her home. The incident unfolded when the parents reportedly caught Senfuma in their living room, leading to his apprehension.
Videos capturing Senfuma pleading for mercy from the minor’s parents have surfaced on social media, shedding light on the dramatic confrontation.
One piece of evidence revealed a WhatsApp message from Senfuma to the student, suggesting that instead of spending money on hiring a room, he could give the money to her. He further sought assurance about her safety at home.
While Hillside College Mityana’s administration has not yet issued an official statement on the matter, local law enforcement is expected to release a statement outlining the charges Senfuma may face.
The incident has triggered public concern, with the circulating videos and online discussions addressing broader issues related to student safety within educational institutions. This occurrence serves as a stark reminder of the imperative need for vigilance and measures to ensure the well-being of students in academic settings.
The rise in cases of sexual abuse involving minors by school teachers has become a growing concern, highlighting the urgency for proactive steps to protect students in educational environments.
Most teachers are like this, they sexually harass young girls since the girls can’t speak up and say NO !!
