Regional police crime officer, Superintendent Reuben Dugah, told JoyNews, the Principal said the school authorities did not sanction the event.

The school therefore willingly handed him over as being the one responsible for the event’s organization.

Speaking to Joy News correspondent, Eliasu Tanko, the Crime Officer explained that the event was in violation of the restrictions act hence the police action.

The twerking competition started at about 10pm that night and went on for several hours.

There was almost no regards to covid-19 regulations as the students took turns to exhibit their dancing skills.
