A video of a pre-school teacher mercilessly beating a little girl at school has perhaps, rightly landed the teacher in trouble after the year-old video resurfaced.
A video, reportedly recorded over a year ago in which a kindergarten school teacher was severely beating one of her little students, has resurfaced and landed the teacher in hot waters.
Legit.ng sighted the video on Twitter, as it has apparently gone viral outside of its origin of South Africa.
The video shows the seemingly upset teacher spanking the girl, probably under 5 years old. The teacher was apparently upset that the little girl had vomited thereby giving the teacher work to do.
