A final year female student of Vitting Senior High School has reportedly abandoned her West African Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) papers due to pregnancy. The girl whose identity has been withheld is a final year Home Economics student at the Vitting SHS who got pregnant during the closure of schools due to COVID-19 and has since not returned for her WASSCE exams. Mr. Douglass also expressed concerns over what is currently happening in some schools with regard to students going on a rampage. He further stated, that the students need to be talked to, let them understand that they need to sit up, prepare, study, and then write the exams. He also stressed that, they will not succumb to any pressure from anybody to allow the students to copy.
