There
was anxiety over the state of health of a teacher at the Osogbo Grammar
School, Osun State, identified simply as Mr. Olamoyegun, on Thursday as
a pupil of the Government Technical College in the town attacked him
with a machete
Although what led to the attack on the
teacher was still sketchy, our correspondent, however, gathered that the
pupil pulled a surprise attack on the teacher, making it impossible for
him to defend himself.
Some pupils of the OGS told our
correspondent that the attacker, whose name had yet to be identified,
attacked the teacher from the back and inflicted a deep cut on his head
with the cutlass.
One of the OGS pupils, whose name is
withheld for security purpose, said, “I think the person that attacked
Mr. Olamoyegun is a cultist. That is what everybody is saying here
because he just sneaked behind our teacher and attacked him with the
cutlass in his hand. He did not give Mr. Olamoyegun the chance to defend
himself.
