Islamic scholar Abdul-Muhsin Baafi is calling out the Attorney General for staying quiet while Wesley Girls' Senior High School keeps blocking Muslim students from doing their religious stuff. He said the AG office should be stepping up because the school's rules look like they violate constitutional protections, and somebody needs to say something about the discrimination angle.
Meanwhile, Baafi gave props to Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu for pushing back against the school's policies. He said Iddrisu's approach shows actual leadership because the minister pointed out how the restrictions clash with human rights standards. The whole mess has people arguing about whether schools can limit religious freedom, and Baafi thinks Ghana's Constitution is pretty clear that public institutions need to let students practice their faith without getting blocked.
