A Ghanaian teacher in a rural area went to the house of one of her students who was not in school and made him bathe and dress up so they could go together.

Miss Afia Boadi teaches in a public school in the Bia West District of the Western North region.

When she got to school one day, one of her students, Tawiah, was absent, so she decided to go to the boy’s house and return with him.

Miss Afia Boadi shared a TikTok video showing herself walking to Tawiah’s house. When she got there, Tawiah was helping his dad do some house chores.
