A single mother’s tragic complaint against a primary school teacher has caused considerable outrage and worry after she shared her story on X, the former Twitter.

The woman, who herself as a single mother of three, claimed she works relentlessly every day to support her children through her little tomato company.

Despite her difficulties, she maintains that her children are well fed, healthy, and adequately cared for.

“I am absolutely heartbroken and beyond angry right now,” she wrote. “Imagine working yourself to the bone as a single mom of three, just for a shameless teacher to sit back and eat your child’s lunch every single day.”

In her heartbreaking statement, the mother revealed that she does not receive any assistance or support from her children’s father and relies exclusively on her daily earnings to survive.

“I am doing this all on my own, no help, no support from their father, just me and my tomato business,” she said.

She also stated that she works hard and sweats under the sun every day in order to provide a better life for her children and keep them healthy.

“But while I’m out here struggling, someone else is busy reaping where she didn’t sow,” she lamented.

The mother stated that her youngest child attends a school where all fees are paid, emphasising that she owes the school nothing.

“This is my youngest child. Her school fees are paid in full; I don’t owe that school a single kobo,” she stated.

She says she packed her child’s school backpack every morning with enough food to last until lunchtime.

However, she began to notice some concerning changes.

“For two months, I noticed she was losing weight,” she wrote.

Concerned, she began asking questions and silently observing until she discovered what she described as a troubling truth.

Following her investigation, the mother alleged that the child’s instructor was taking the meals intended for her daughter.

“I found out the truth: her teacher has been finishing her food,” she alleged.

She even went so far as to claim that her child was not the only one who suffered.

“I’m almost certain she’s doing this to other kids, too,” she added.

The mother explained how the purported conduct was performed.

She tells the children to bring their bags to her so she can ‘keep them safe,’” she explained.

Instead of protecting the luggage, the mother claimed that the teacher secretly searched them.

“She goes behind their backs to steal and eat their meals,” she said.

The issue apparently escalated when the mother filed a complaint with the school administration.

“When I went to the school to report this, the administration was just plain rude to me,” she wrote.

She expressed significant frustration, claiming that her child was suffering while the teacher benefited.

“I cannot be sweating in the sun to feed my child while this lady is getting fat and fresh off my daughter’s lunch while my baby loses weight,” she said.

In her post, the mother contacted the teacher directly, identifying her as Madam Lucia.

“A word of advice for Madam Lucia: please, eat very well at your own house before coming to work,” she wrote.

“Stop the habit of eating your pupils’ lunch,” she added. She also issued a warning to the school management.

“And to the school administration, I’m not trying to expose you yet, but I urge you to take this seriously and fix this issue immediately,” she said.

She demanded decisive action, including dismissal. “I do not want her to be in that school again as a teacher,” she concluded.
