Lecturers at the Bolgatanga Nurses Training College in the Upper East Region, have accused the Principal of the school Bawa Awula of abuse of office and misappropriation of funds.

The office of the Principal was locked up by the lecturers in school, preventing her from going about her normal duties as the Principal of the school.

The lecturers, who threatened to boycott class are demanding that the principal steps aside to allow investigations into what they believe is his violation of the Procurement Act as well as neglecting the plight of both lecturers and students.

A senior lecturer and convener of the lecturers, Edward Atiim, said: “since the coming of our principal to Bolga Nursing Training College, he had indicated to us his vision, but it has been almost two years, but his vision has not materialized.”

According to him, the posture of the Principal has prompted them to lock up his office so that they all stay out of the office until the authorities respond.

He added they have served letters in respect of these issues to the acting head of Health training institutions, and copied the Regional Director of Health Services, the Upper East Regional Minister, the Minister for Health, and the Economic and Organized Crime Office (EOCO) but has received no response in that regard,”
