Video: Students Watch As Two Teachers Fight
By Benjamin Abioye

A shocking incident has surfaced online, showing two teachers engaged in a physical fight inside a school staff room.
The disturbing footage, which has gone viral on various Nigerian social media platforms, particularly X (formerly Twitter), has sparked widespread reactions and concerns about professionalism in the education sector.
In the video, students and other staff members are seen watching from outside, with some attempting to intervene through the window. Despite efforts to separate them, the two teachers remained locked in a fierce struggle. At one point, one of them held the other’s neck tightly under his armpit, refusing to let go. As the fight escalated, a female teacher bravely stepped in, trying to break them apart.
The incident has generated an avalanche of reactions, with many social media users expressing shock, amusement, and disappointment. Some mocked the teachers, suggesting they had chosen the wrong profession. @simeonadisa_ jokingly wrote, “These are not teachers. They are world wrestlers wasting their talents in the business of chalk and duster.” Others speculated that a romantic dispute might have been the cause. @eduguypimp tweeted, “Men really fell off. E fit be babe wey cause this fight.”
Some users were more critical of the incident, questioning what kind of example the teachers were setting for their students. @Holic_ay1 asked, “Is this what they want us to learn?” while @ItzRealcollins pointed out the irony: “It used to be students fighting in front of teachers. Now, it’s teachers fighting in front of students. How are we sure the world isn’t ending soon?”
Others found humor in the situation. @osweetlili7 quipped, “Na woman cause this fight, because why the other man dey hold that one for akpa amu?” while @Ugowil noted, “He wants to choke him out.”
However, some users called for serious action to be taken. @maskarasss stated, “These two have lost their jobs in a serious school.” Similarly, @abiodun_23 demanded, “Those two need to be suspended indefinitely without pay. They’re shameless.”
While the exact cause of the altercation remains unclear, the incident has raised concerns about the professionalism and discipline of educators. Many believe that regardless of the reason for the fight, such behavior is unacceptable in an academic environment. Whether the school authorities will take action against the teachers remains to be seen, but the video has undoubtedly left a lasting impression on many Nigerians.
