Eight students of Kotido SS have been suspended for pregnancy following the routine test carried out at the school.

This was disclosed by Kotido deputy RDC John Magyezi Lukooki.

According to Magyezi, the girls who are majorly in O-level tested positive after the school administration subjected them to pregnancy tests.

Magyezi says the results of the tests prompted the school disciplinary committee to suspend the girls from school for fear of influencing other students.

He however says those in candidate classes will be allowed to sit their exams but expressed worries that those in the lower classes will be affected as the current curriculum is all about continued assessment.

The deputy RDC has warned students against reckless behaviors which put their future in jeopardy.

The suspension comes just days after the school administration with the office the RDC resolved to deploy security personnel along the Longiro river to curb unnecessary movement of students out of school.

Attempts to get comments from the school administrators were futile.
