Eleven students have been arrested by the Kpando Divisional Police Command in the Volta Region in connection with the violent clashes between students of the Kpando Senior High School and the Kpando Technical Institute.
The students arrested include five students from Kpando Technical Institute, five from the Kpando Senior High School and the other, a past student of the Kpando Senior High School.
"The students will be charged with rioting and causing unlawful damage to school property.
"The headmasters of the two schools, thus, the Kpando Technical Institute and the Kpando Senior High School helped to identify them, leading to their arrest," Chief Superintendent Thomas Tindow told Accra-based Citi FM.
Some male students of Kpando Technical Institute (KPANTECH) last Saturday attacked students of Kpando Senior High School (KPANSEC) after they were allegedly denied participation in a jam organized in town by students of the Kpando Senior High School.
The KPANTECH students were reported to have vandalised the dormitories, school walls and sign boards of Kpando Senior High School (KPANSEC).
The Kpando Senior High School is situated directly opposite the Kpando Technical Institute in the Volta region.
There has been some rivalry between the two schools over the years.
