What Really Happened to Nana Agyei?

Follow us on S ocials:  Facebook   and  Instagram When 18‑year‑old Ghanaian student Nana Agyei left home to pursue his education in Europe, he carried the dreams of a young man determined to build a future far brighter than his beginnings. Today, those dreams have been violently interrupted, and the circumstances surrounding his death remain clouded by contradictions, silence, and a disturbing lack of transparency.  No parent sends their child to school expecting to receive them back like this. Latvian authorities reported that Nana fell from a fifth‑floor window, suggesting an accident or possible suicide. But the more details emerge, the more this explanation collapses. Nana had reportedly been bullied for months. Just three days before his death, he was allegedly poisoned — a claim supported by a doctor’s report his family released publicly. He was hospitalised, destabilised, and discharged the same day. Within 24 hours, he was dead. Tiktok News Reporter Dylan Pag...

"Your Breath Is Distracting Me”: When Hygiene Becomes a Barrier to Learning.



By Tracyann Dunkley | Exclusive | Social Affairs

In a series of candid conversations with secondary school students across the West Midlands, one unexpected theme kept surfacing—not homework, not phones, not even bullying. It was hygiene. Specifically, the hygiene of their teachers.

These interviews, gathered during casual walks home from school, revealed a quiet but powerful discomfort. Pupils spoke of bad breath, strong body odour, and visible saliva during speech. Some described the dread of entering certain classrooms, knowing they’d be met with smells that made concentration nearly impossible.

“I hold my breath when they lean over my desk,” one Year 9 student admitted.
“I can’t focus when I’m trying not to gag,” said another.

This isn’t about shaming—it’s about awareness. Teachers are often full-time parents, juggling part-time jobs and early starts. Time is tight. But the impact on students is real. When hygiene becomes a distraction, learning suffers.

We’re not asking for perfection. We’re asking for a moment. A mint. A fresh shirt. A check-in before leaving home. Because for the children who sit in those classrooms, it matters. And they notice. To every educator reading this: your presence is powerful. Your influence is lasting. And your hygiene—though rarely discussed—can either support or sabotage a child’s ability to learn.

Please, if you can spare the time, know that your students would deeply appreciate it.
