Popular Nigerian Nollywood actress and comedian Funke Akindele has expressed disappointment over the way some teachers maltreat and beat up pupils across the various schools in the country. Her concern is coming days after a report emerged of teachers in Nasarawa state beating up secondary school students with horsewhips for resuming a week later than other students in the school. She described the punishment as wicked and evil.
