SHS Graduate in Tears After Teacher Allegedly Seizes iPhone 13 Pro Max
A recent graduate of Asanteman Senior High School in the Ashanti Region has been left emotionally distressed after alleging that her iPhone 13 Pro Max was seized by a teacher while she was still a student, with repeated efforts to retrieve the device proving unsuccessful.
According to the former student, the phone: an iPhone 13 Pro Max was brought onto the school premises in violation of the school’s regulations, a fact she openly admits. She explained that the device, which she claims was purchased at a cost of GHS 10,200, was confiscated by a teacher after it was found in her possession.
Despite acknowledging her breach of school rules, the graduate says she pleaded with the teacher for the phone to be returned, especially after she completed school. However, she alleges that all attempts to reclaim the device have so far been unsuccessful, leaving her frustrated and in tears.

In an emotional account, she clarified that her current silence on the matter should not be interpreted as acceptance of the situation or abandonment of her claim. Rather, she expressed strong belief that the teacher will one day seek her out to return the phone, and “even do more than that,” suggesting confidence that justice will eventually prevail.
The incident has sparked conversations on social media about the enforcement of school rules, students’ rights, and the proper procedures for handling confiscated personal items in senior high schools. While many have criticized students for flouting school regulations, others have questioned whether confiscated items, especially high-value devices should be withheld indefinitely, particularly after a student has completed school.
As the discussion continues, some education stakeholders are calling on school authorities and the Ghana Education Service to clarify policies governing the seizure and return of students’ personal belongings, in order to prevent similar disputes and protect trust within the school system.
