Whats this with male teachers?

Hmmm it was a fine day yesterday. The world day for prevention of child abuse held yesterday,with a glowing call- adults and young people unite for better prevention of violence and abuse against children. I had planned the event for a government secondary school in surulere. In fact, it was my alma mata. And in fine, we got to sensitise the young children present along side parents and teachers. At the start of the program, a few male teacher were in sight. But i soon noticed they took to their heels when the discussion was focused,and rightly so on the most egregious form of abuse there is-sexual abuse,especially in girls. I had read out shocking statistics that close to 80per cent of young persons get sexually assaulted before 18years. And this assault comes from people whom they trust and may be caregivers and even religious persons. To be sure i was not just reading those foreign statistics that make it look exaggerated, i requested the over 50students to pick a paper and pen-writing out if they are male or female,and then letting me know in yes or no,if they have been sexually abused before. I was amazed. The per centage was alarming. BOTH boys and girls,with a degree higher for girls. I was yet to get a shocker. I requested anonymous question written and passed to me while the program went on. What did i see in the papers? Wow, most of our male teachers are sexually abusing our girls. IT is a fact. I almost caused a row yesterday when i asked for the male teachers to be present. The students had been glad their day for salvation was here. But i had to rethink that. I STOPPED it. BUT largely,most girls went to the counselling unit of my organization. THERE,with competent ladies,i hope they will be saved from our male teachers.
