Sam,
You know as well as I do, that Gershon Nii Lamptey wants his name to be quoted in Ghanaian case law long after his death. I agree in toto with your assertions here. He needs a second opinion in terms of legal advice
let us hear this patriotic prudent. isolated cases should be treated as such. The high court or the president don't come in. Let ghana mentain our peace and not create an opening for Boko Haram's entry. The Ghanaian culture o ...

Catholic Schools are for Catholics and anyone in such a school must obey their principles or rules if not such a person should NOT be there in the first instant.

After their so call petition
Thank you for this precise advice. Hope that all who have ears, listen to this. Case closed. The suit is dead on arrival! We are in a democracy, and not inter-denomination of religious rights.
You see how foolish you have become Nii Lamptey. This should have been sorted by the minister for Education not our High Court and you have been put right.
This is a very important issue which affects us all .Whoever loses a high court case will almosr certainly appeal
in the supreme ct so why dont you go straight there.

A God that needs to be fought for by weak human beings ceases to be the Almighty God. I therefore challenge Muslims in Ghana do away with violence and let Allah fight his Christian enemies if he is really the Almighty God.

Please let us focus on the issue(s). No insults please. You look very 'primitive' when you insult others. If I were a true Muslim I would never let my child go to Catholic school.
If you cannot go by the rules of mission schools dont attend one.No mission school forces any muslim or animist or whatever to practice their faith,these are part of the school curricula
If you don't like it get out.We the Christians will obey by the law .Crusader we are coming.
Mission schools does not operate in another world.They are regulated by GES. Not only Catholics go to their schools their stand is unchristian and promote disunity as well.GES must not fall on the side of any religion. Remove ...
