Nana Poku Piesie, a prominent radio personality with Sompa FM has stirred controversy and faced widespread condemnation following a startling revelation on air. The media figure confessed during a radio broadcast that he had previously engaged in an amorous relationship with a 14-year old young lady who was his student while he was a teacher.

Nana Poku Piesie, who transitioned from a career in education to media, disclosed that his relationship with the student persisted from when she was in class 6 until she completed her Senior High School education. This admission has sparked outrage among a significant segment of the Ghanaian public, who view the relationship as a serious breach of ethical and professional boundaries.

Before venturing into the media industry, Nana Poku Piesie was a professional teacher at a school in Dormaa Ahenkro. His move to radio brought him a new level of fame and influence, particularly in the Ashanti region. However, his recent confession has cast a shadow over his reputation.

The revelation has ignited a firestorm of criticism on social media and other platforms, with many Ghanaians expressing their disapproval and calling for accountability, including multiple award winning rapper Sarkodie and actress Lydia Forson. Critics argue that as a teacher, Piesie held a position of power and trust, which he allegedly abused by engaging in a romantic relationship with a student.

Educational and ethical experts have weighed in on the matter, emphasizing the inherent power imbalance in teacher-student relationships. Dr. Evelyn Adusei, a lecturer in Educational Ethics at the University of Ghana, stated, “Such relationships are fundamentally exploitative and undermine the trust placed in educators. It is crucial for teachers to maintain professional boundaries to protect the integrity of the educational environment.”

While the specifics of the legal implications remain unclear, the public outcry has prompted calls for a thorough investigation into the matter since crime has no statute of limitations. There are concerns about the possible violations of laws pertaining to the protection of minors and the ethical conduct expected of educators.

As of now, Sompa FM has not released an official statement regarding the controversy. However, there is growing pressure on the station to address the issue and take appropriate action. The station’s handling of the situation will likely have significant repercussions for its reputation and listenership.

The incident serves as a stark reminder of the importance of ethical conduct in all professions, especially those involving vulnerable populations such as students. It also highlights the need for strict adherence to professional boundaries and the enforcement of regulations designed to protect individuals from exploitation.
