Achimota School Board Does Not Have The Power To Appeal Ruling On Rastafarians Students- Education Minister

The Minister of Education, Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum says the Board of Achimota School does not have the power to unilaterally decide to appeal a ruling of the Human Rights Court ordering it to admit two Rastafarian students.
According to him, any such important decision should have been advised by the Attorney General who represented both the school in the landmark case.

Education Minister commenting on the development on Good Evening Ghana show on Metro TV Tuesday night asked the Board of the Achimota School Board not to go ahead with the appeal.

“I am very surprised, the Board cannot take that unilateral position to go back to court”, Dr Adutwum said.
