Sebei College Tegeres has suspended over 800 students following a violent strike on Sunday October 23, 2022.

The Kapchorwa district based school sent home senior one, two, three and five students who turned violent after the school allegedly failed to turn on the generator so they could watch an English Premier League match between Chelsea and Manchester United.

The head teacher, Frederic Chesang, in a suspension letter dated October 23, 2022 said the students are required to report back on 7th November upon paying Shs103,000 as a penalty.

“The magnitude of the destruction is big and therefore you are expected to pay Ugx103000 including the bank charge as a cost for repairs,” Chesang stated.

He said the money should be channeled directly to the school account using school payment codes issued earlier to every student.

According to Chesang, the students watched the first half of the match and during the start of the second half, electricity went off and the generator developed technical complications.

“The cause of the strike was because of electricity load shedding and failure by the generator to work to enable them watch a match.”

He said they destroyed water pipes, doors, windows and CCTV cameras.

He expressed disappointment in the students’ misconduct at the time they should be preparing for the end of year examinations.

He even invited parents who so wish to come to the school and see the vandalized property.
