Kwania, Uganda | The police in Kwania District, Northern Uganda, have briefly detained five parents for failing to take their children to school. They were arrested on Monday during an operation led by Alan Aboce, Akali Sub-County Chief.
Daniel Okullo, Susan Alaba, and Bosco Dunge, all residents of Iceke Leye Village, Aderolongo Parish, in Akali Sub-County, are parents of children at Aderolongo Primary School. The parents later committed themselves in writing to send their children to school.
A report from Aderolongo Primary School indicates that out of 600 learners registered at the school last term, only 295 reported as of Monday, about three weeks after the Term II school reopening.
