"I humbly urge you to transfer most of the old teachers and teachers who put up bad behaviours. Most of them put up bad behaviours that tarnish the image of the school, we don't deserve that. This message is very important to me and I urge you to do it very quickly for me. Kindly work on it fast and I will be happy", the chief pleaded.
