A social media user posted a controversial video discouraging students and depicting a bleak picture for their after-school life.
“Whether you study or not there will be no jobs for you,” the man was heard saying in the recording, according to Akhbaar24.
Saudi Education Ministry spokesperson Mubarak Al Usaimi said that the man has yet to be identified.
In a statement to Al Arabiya TV, he said that strict measures would be taken if the man turned out to be a teacher for discouraging students.
