A political aide believes that crime trends in Ghanaian schools will get worse. Kofi Tonto, an aide to Dr. Bawumia, said violent acts and hooliganism among high school students will continue.
He stated this is true unless education and security officials change their ways. Mr. Tonto urged them to modernize how they prevent and discipline students.
He linked the problem to young people's access to new technology. This access, he suggested, brings global trends that impact student behavior.
He stressed the need for new approaches to keep schools safe. The current methods may not be enough to deal with changing problems.
The official did not say what specific new methods are needed. However, the call highlights a concern about student behavior.
Addressing the root causes of student violence is important. This could involve exploring various strategies for schools and authorities.
