Parents Write To Minister Over Sexual Deviance At School In Marondera
Guardians and parents with children enrolled at Cherutombo High School in Marondera have approached the government and other stakeholders to intervene and stop drug abuse and sexual deviance at the school.
This comes after several videos of visibly intoxicated learners at the school engaging in sex orgies were leaked on social media platforms.
The concerned parents wrote a letter to Mashonaland East Provincial Affairs minister Apolonia Munzverengwi asking her to intervene.
The letter, which was copied to various stakeholders, among them the police and church leaders, reads in part:
Is Cherutombo High School a learning institution or has it turned into a brothel? We used to see the police coming to lecture learners every Wednesday, but this has since stopped.
Can you assist with arresting rogue students who drugged a female student before taking turns to sexually abuse her while others were recording videos?
This video is being sold at the school for US$5. Minister (Munzverengwi) can you please intervene in this case to save the children?
Recently, a team led by counsellor and cleric Lameck Tsiga visited schools in Marondera where they educated learners on the dangers and effects of drug abuse.
ZRP acting spokesperson in Mashonaland East Province, Assistant Inspector Misheck Denhere, said they are moving around Marondera schools educating learners about the dangers of drug and substance abuse. He said:
We are calling on parents and guardians to monitor their children and see whether they are involved in drug abuse or not.
We are also seeking information that may lead to drug suppliers and their agents.
