The ongoing legal battle against Wesley Girls Senior High School (SHS) has sparked widespread discussions on religious freedom in Ghana's educational system.
The school has been accused of preventing Muslim students from practising their religion, leading to a lawsuit filed by Shafic Osman, a Ghanaian citizen.
As the case progresses, former Director of the Ghana Education Service (GES), Charles Aheto-Tsegah, has offered his perspective on the situation, arguing that students have the freedom to choose institutions that align with their religious practices.
In an exclusive interview on GHOne TV, Aheto-Tsegah addressed the issue, stating that students should not feel compelled to stay in a school that conflicts with their religious beliefs. "If you think that the rules and the standards of the school do not adhere to the way you want to worship, you have the freedom to go to another school," he said.
