 St.Gonzaga Secondary School, Kijjukizo in Lyantonde District has been closed after male students staged a violent protest which resulted in the torching of the deputy head teacher's office.

In the strike which started after Monday morning preps, the rowdy male students accused the deputy head teacher, Mr Emmanuel Lubowa of being a “rumormonger and secretly interacting with the female students.”

The deputy head teacher talks a lot with the female students and sometimes invites them to his house. It is through such secret interactions with girls that he gets information about which students own phones and later confiscates them,” one of the unidentified striking students shouted.
But Mr Lubowa refuted all the allegations leveled against him.
“I am a disciplinarian and that is the reason I am paid. The students can say all sorts of things but that cannot break my back,” he said
To contain the situation, management resolved to close the school for two weeks.

Lyantonde Resident District Commissioner, Mr Godfrey Mbetegyerize advised the school management to build a strong students’ leadership that can help detect strikes before they occur“If there was a good students’ leadership which works closely with management, such an incident could have been avoided, the students’ leadership could have identified the problem and inform management,” he said.
