Ghanaian Teacher Shares Terrifying Encounter with an Armed Stalker in Her Classroom
A female Ghanaian teacher has shared a chilling encounter with a man she suspects to be mentally unstable, who has been regularly stalking her during teaching hours.
According to her account, the man frequently appears in her classroom, carrying a hoe or sometimes a cutlass, and silently stares at both her and the pupils, creating a tense and frightening atmosphere.
Despite the obvious danger, the teacher bravely confronted the man to understand his disturbing behavior. To her shock, he responded cryptically, claiming he was there for something between them, which he described as her “forbidden fruit.”
His unsettling words sent shivers down her spine, raising serious concerns about her safety and that of her students.
This alarming experience highlights the security challenges faced by teachers, especially those working in rural and underserved communities.
Many schools in Ghana lack proper security measures, leaving teachers and students vulnerable to intrusions, harassment, and, in some cases, violent attacks.

The absence of trained security personnel in many schools means teachers must fend for themselves in such threatening situations.
The teacher’s ordeal also underscores the urgent need for improved mental health care services in Ghana. Cases of individuals with mental health conditions roaming freely without proper care and supervision are not uncommon. Without adequate intervention, such incidents could escalate into dangerous situations.
Authorities and local education stakeholders must take swift action to ensure the safety of teachers and students. Providing security personnel for schools, enforcing strict access control, and improving community engagement can help prevent such incidents.
Additionally, strengthening mental health services to identify and support individuals with conditions that could pose a risk to society is crucial.
For this brave teacher, the haunting words of her stalker remain a disturbing reminder of the risks educators face in their line of duty. As she continues her work, she can only hope that measures will be put in place to protect her and others from similar terrifying encounters.
