The Ghana Education Service (GES) has denied media reports that some students of the Wesley Girls Senior High School in Cape Coast, have been\u00a0caught by school authorities practicing occultism.<\/p>\n

This follows a meeting held by the Ghana Education Service on Tuesday in Accra with the headmistress of the school after news broke.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”Ei6m1Rd8yYBXCFmzmxLyA8g21pNyvG42″]Speaking to Citi News<\/strong>, the Public Relations Officer of the GES, Reverend Jonathan Bettey, said the students were caught with a book that had different doctrines from the Christian beliefs of the school.<\/p>\n

According to Rev Bettey, the book titled \u201cThe Ministry of Angels and how to activate them\u201d were retrieved from the students and they were warned\u00a0 against the use of such material.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no occultic group functioning in the school. The said book was in circulation in the school according to the headmistress. When she was notified, she rallied round all the students in the school and emptied their luggage\u00a0and gathered all the books.”<\/p>\n

“She is saying that it was a senior student together with some people in other schools in the town that were patronizing the book. So when they were caught, the children were warned against the use of those things and all the books that were found were collected from the students,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Background:<\/strong><\/p>\n

22 students from the Wesley Girls Senior High School in Cape Coast were allegedly caught practicing occultism.<\/p>\n

They were reportedly nabbed during a ceremony to induct new entrants into the group.\u00a0The report stated that the students caught were mostly first and second year students.<\/p>\n
