@JustNanaAma said:

"In light of the video from Adisadel College, I would like to reiterate an old point: Public boarding schools in Ghana must go."

@adisco_2009 posted:

''Adisadel College was built on a solid Christian foundation. As santaclausians, such behaviour will not be tolerated. The culprit has also been referred to the police for further action.''

@JeromeOtchere commented:

''I don't know the school rules, but why is the horrific bullying at Adisadel College, as seen in that video, not a police case? Such dastardly conduct shouldn't be countenanced anywhere. How others stood by without intervening says a lot about how many of today's young people think.''
