School Head, Teachers Flee From School After Being "Attacked By Goblins"
Zumba Primary School head and some teachers have reportedly fled from the institution located in Gokwe, Midlands province after alleged goblins allegedly attacked them on several occasions.
The school has been suffering recurrent attacks from the goblins for almost a year, NewsDay Reported.
Five female pupils were allegedly attacked by the creatures before schools closed. A villager told NewsDay:
Just before schools closed, the goblins attacked five or six girls on the same day.
The headmaster ran away after the incident. Some teachers have also left the school. I don’t know if they are going to come back when schools open.
Primary and Secondary Education ministry spokesperson Taungana Ndoro said there is nothing the ministry could do. He told NewsDay:
We can’t comment on a witchcraft issue. The ministry can’t do anything about it. Talk to chiefs, they will assist you.
Zimbabwe National Traditional Healers Association president George Kandiero said there was a need for the place to be exorcised.
He said it was important to engage “someone who knows how to handle goblins.”
Kandiero said either the owners of the school or the people who are allegedly being attacked must be the ones who initiate the exorcising process.
