DAILY POST gathered that a clash occurred between the students and some residents within the community on Thursday.
Our correspondent reports that the school was virtually empty on Monday.
A student in the school who asked not to be named said that only few of them showed up in the school.
“We did not see our teachers today, we don’t know why but I am sure it is not unconnected with the invasion of the school last week. We will also leave soon,” the student said.
DAILY POST gathered that the teachers, rather than resuming in the school, reported at the Teaching Service Commission (TESCOM) zonal office, Oja-Tuntun, Ogbomoso, in order to register their protest.
The teachers were seen sitting in groups.
They signed the time book at the zonal office while the principal had been summoned to the TESCOM head office in Ibadan.
