Here are the stories that made the news Wednesday:

1. Don't use female students as bedmates - Teachers told

The Education Ministry has described as worrying reported cases of sexual harassment of pupils by their teachers in parts of the country. Public Relations Officer of the Ministry Cassandra Ampofo told Joy News teachers are supposed to be “role models” to the pupils or students they teach and not to be bedmates. Her comments come in the wake of sex scandals involving two schools in two different regions with an accompanying leaked sex video between the headmaster of Adumanu D/A Basic in the Central Region and a 19-year-old girl who was once a student of the school.

2. Gov't cries foul about Gitmo 2 refugee status

Government says it is unable to immediately execute plans to repatriate the two Guantanamo Bay detainees who have been in Ghana the last two years because of their refugee status. Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister, Charles Wiredu said the Ministry was surprised to discover that the past National Democratic Congress (NDC) regime granted the refugee status to the two Yemeni nationals before the end of their mandatory two-year stay in the country. With their new status as refugees, it will be difficult to send them to another country when they have not flouted Ghana’s laws, he told Evans Mensah on Joy FM’s Top Story Wednesday.

3. NMC recommends appointment of acting GBC boss

The National Media Commission (NMC) has recommended the appointment of an acting Director-General of the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC), shortly after the 'dismissed' boss sought its intervention. The Commission has explained the interim measure will allow the Board to thoroughly probe circumstances that led to the 'dismissal' of Dr Kwame Akuffo Annof-Ntow. The GBC boss was asked to proceed on leave over his role in the setting up of the Special TV licence court to prosecute defaulters. The action has been interpreted as an outright dismissal.

4. Gitmo 2 here to stay - Foreign Affairs Ministry declares

Foreign minister Shirley Ayorkor Botchwey says two former terror suspects currently in Ghana have married in Ghana after they were brought from the US in 2016. "Both of them have married..but no not to Ghanaians," she said, hinting the two brides were brought in from other countries.

5. NPP eyes South Africa's ANC shocker in 2020

The acting NPP General Secretary John Boadu says the party has completed its audit of the 2016 electoral victory and would use its findings to improve its gains come 2020 general elections. He said the 2016 victory must not relegate challenges and problems its election machinery faced in the run-up to the December 2016 polls. Mr Boadu said the party is not satisfied with having 169 seats in Parliament. It fell short of commanding a super-majority by 14 seats.

6. Gitmo 2 would have been taken to Morocco

Acting General Secretary of the governing New Patriotic Party John Boadu has expressed disappointment in the former National Democratic Congress government's handling of the Gitmo 2 former terror suspects sent to Ghana from the US. John Boadu is convinced the Mahama-led NDC government stabbed Ghanaians in the back when it failed to come clean on the decision to accept two Yemenis in January 2016. He said there are several aspects of the diplomatic agreement that was hidden from Ghanaians which is now haunting the NPP government as it looks for options available to it following the expiration of their stay in Ghana.

7. Heads must roll in Kwabenya killing - Titus Glover

The Member of Parliament for Tema East and Deputy Transport Minister, Nii Kwartei Titus-Glover has called for police personnel in charge of the Kwabenya police station to be interrogated effectively. According to him, it is administratively and professionally wrong to keep all seven criminals in one cell and therefore, could not fathom why the Kwabenya Police station did so. A Police officer, Inspector Emmanuel Ashilevi, who was a supervising officer for the patrol teams within his jurisdiction, was shot dead when an arm-wielding gang stormed the Kwabenya District Police station, Accra, to free suspected armed robbers who were in custody at the station last Sunday.
