Three students died at Nkwanta Senior High School during violent ethnic fighting. The deaths happened when bullets struck students who were caught between warring groups. Two girls from Forms Two and Three were walking home from school Thursday when gunfire killed them. A male Form Three student died Friday after a stray bullet hit him. The ethnic conflict has torn apart the Oti Region community for years.

Ghana Education Service shut down the school immediately after the violence began. Officials sent police officers to help students leave safely and return to their families. The temporary closure protects remaining students from more danger. Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu said his department feels sad about the senseless deaths. He praised school officials for acting quickly to save lives.

The minister told education leaders to watch the situation closely. Student safety remains the top concern for all schools across the region. Parents worry about when their children can return to classes safely. Security forces work to stop the fighting and restore peace to Nkwanta township. Community leaders hope the violence ends soon so students can resume learning without fear.
