The more these people keep at this the more they expose themselves as people who misplace their priorities and then try to dominate the fruits of someone else’s priorities. Are you not ashamed? Where are your own schools? Don’t mention Ahmadi schools - they are a tiny minority that you hate. Even the few Ahmadi schools around have the same rules that you seek to dismantle in Christian schools. What is it at all are you people looking for?

Moslems, tell us, are you really being honest? Would you like Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, African Traditional worship in YOUR schools? Grossly dishonest and hypocritical.

It seems some Moslems are more interested in symbolic gestures like prayer than sincerity and honesty. I was shocked to see a Moslem go straight into prayer seconds after attempting to engage in an illegal transaction with me. Can someone please educate me on the Sharia jurisprudence of this behaviour?

There is more than enough education taxes being paid by people belonging to the same faith as these good schools with much remaining to cover Moslem schools. Just because my taxes are mixed with yours does not mean that you own any assets of mine that receive a government transfer. Do you own the private companies that have received tax concessions?

PLease SAVE me feLLow Ghanaians, i'm a 24 years oLd Ghanaian Lady that was scammed by some Nigerians, i'm currentLy stranded in Nigeria, it aLL started few months ago when i got a WhatsApp message that a traveL agency in Lagos Nigeria is recruiting Ghanaians and Nigerians for job openings in Canada, i soLd everything i had and borrowed from a Lot of peopLe and kept sending them money for the traveL to Canada, when i ran out of money to send to them, they invited me to Lagos that my visa is ready, when i got to Lagos they took the remaining money i had on me and took my phone and refused to give me my passport that i posted to them earLier from Ghana, i was Left stranded, i sLept on the streets for few days before i got a restaurant that accepted me to be working for them so i can be eating and have a pLace to sLeep, they don't pay me, what i gain is just the free food and sLeeping in the restaurant, pLease i need heLp of around 100,000 naira which is around 800 cedis so i can go back to Ghana, my transport back to Ghana is expensive because i'm not with my passport, the transport companies here charge more for passengers traveLing without passport, i promise to pay back the money once i'm back to Ghana and start work, i can aLso work for anyone that heLps me with the money so the 800 GHS can be deducted from my saLary, i know it might be hard to get 1 person that can heLp me with 800 GHS so i wiLL appreciate any amount sent to me and be gratefuL, even if i receive 50 GHS or Less i can be saving up untiL i compLete the money to 800 GHS, i can be reached on WhatsApp via +2348080471602, this is my workmate's number, i don't have a phone, when you chat, teLL him you want to chat with Sandra so he can give the phone to me, pLease heLp make my story go viraL so i can get heLp faster by posting my story on your Facebook and WhatsApp groups, i need to return to GH as soon as possibLe, i'm suffering here.

Who should build the quality schools for your terrorists-to-be kids. Comparing Canada and US and the UK to Ghana. After all the education the US gave you, what did you pay them with? Have you forgotten 9/21? Your Islamic State "proudly" claimed responsibility for bombing a subway in London. Bombings in France orchestrated by the Islamic States are uncountable. We can go on and on. These are countries which have allowed you all your rights. Never satisfied with what someone generously gives you. Crazy, violent, intolerant beasts. Not easy to build quality schools. Takes discipline which you do not have. Send your kids to makalanta where violence is taught.

Ghana is a peaceful country as you are saying. Ghana and Muslims has lived together for a since independence. Take Ashanti region for example. KUMASI has suburbs for Muslims and under tribes. I don't understand where from this religious arguments coming from. The Methodist church and the other religious institutions should put away all these issues. But rather use the pulpit to preach against corruption which is destroying the country. In every town and cities in Ghana you will find churches and prayer camps. But look at the corruption going on. Is corruption also not against the teachings of the Bible?Even galamassey is against the teachings of the Bible. Destroying the the future of the younger generations just to enrichment.

The issue for discussion shouldn’t be the oldest secondary school. The focus ought to be how far Ghana has come. A greater number of accomplished Ghanaians never attended these old schools which were mostly established along the coast. Nobody expected pupils from regions in the forest belt to travel to the coast where the slave masters had come back to establish their exploitative bases.

History revisited...!!!

Wesley Girls was originally established as an elementary or primary school and not a high or secondary school. So, in terms of educational institutions, WG is the oldest.
HOWEVER, Kwabotwe was established as the first SECONDARY school. Hence when talking about tertiary education, Kwabotwe was the first in 1876.
WG later evolved to become a secondary school (the second after Kwabotwe) in 1884
