  Let's embrace each other despite our differences. The fact is that we're all Ghanaian.

  Massa, I don't think you believe in what you have just written. The idea of living together despite obvious differences is anathema to Muslims. Please begin your advice by telling the Muslims to respect the establishment ideals of Wesley Girls High School. I know you would't dare, because you know very well that these Muslims are bent on stepping on the toes of the Christians whiles cynically crying out loudly as the victims.

  @Re think..... do not mind these Islamised African dickheads. Tjey want to reap were their idiotic muslim imposters never sowed. Now, George Ekem Ferguson, was schooled by Wesley boys. Trained as an engineer and a surveyor. He went to Northern Ghana to do good for his country ...that is, drawing the geographical map of Ghana in 1897, only to be slaughtered by an Arabised Islamic Slave raiding terrorist at Wa. Yet, these shameless bunch of fools want a bit of what the Methodist Church used their meagre sunday collections back then to do something meaningful for us. They hardly question their befuddled brains as to what their Arab Muslims did for them. They are not conditioned to think or ask reasonable questions because the bogus Arab Vultural Vanity imposed on them is a one way street. Bunch of dickheads all of them. No exception whatsoever! African fools who will die tor some non existent Arab Allah who does not give a fig about them.

  A bunch of indoctrinated African fools who think Arab Cultural Vanity imposed on their ancestors via an Arab sword centuries ago is their way to salvation.
  A devil will quote the scripture. "There is no compulsion in religion" try that in Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan. Iran, Kuwait or even Northern Nigeria.
  "To you, your religion, and to me,my religion"
  Only and Arabised African twat will accept this poppycock as truism".
  Now, how on earth did the marauding Arabs led by Ibn Al As , 639 AD, seven years after the death of their bogus Arab false prophet invade Christianised countries such as Egypt, Libya, Algeria, Morocco etc where St Augustine of Hippo, St Mark etc were born and bred centuries before their business man turned prophet capture all those countries and Arabised and Islamised them is not what you lot want to talk about.
  Mohammed, a 54 year old man , decides to marry a six year old girl. He gets a revelation from his fake Allah, and bingo, he arries Aisha at six and screw ner at nine. Fantastic!
  His adopted son marries Zaynab. He sees her in a gown, realises he wants to have sex with her, hey presto, he gets a revelation from his special Allah, his son divorces his wife per his revelation from his Allah. He then gets a special permisdson to copulate with his adopted son's ex wife. And, this vile and despicable man is considered a prophet and reverred.
  Go to Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Kuwait , Bangladesh etc with a few copies of the bible and see what your idiotic no compulsion in religion will di for you or go to any of these intolerant theocratic hell holes and renounce your Islamic faith and see what apostacy means in the nonsensical Arab Crap called the Koran. Well, the first African fool to fall for this Arab piffle was Mansa Musa , and you lot are just as daft as he was. What has hijab wearing or praying zillion times a friggin day got to do with formal education? That said, did the muslim invaders who came to Ghana centurues before the Europeans build any good schools, roads, hospitals for you lot in Ghana as the Christian misdsonaries did? The answer is emphatic , No! Memorise the stupid Koran, fast, pray zillion times a day , and when you die. you will get your reward in the non existent Arab heaven. That, am afraid is a complete pyramid of Arab piffle!
  Stop wasting our ears with this Arab Cultural Vanity disguised as a religion which has never, ever helped us as Africans in any meaningful way.

  A Muslim pupil has lost a High Court challenge against a ban on prayer rituals at a high-achieving north London school.
  
  The student, took legal action against Michaela Community School, claiming the policy was discriminatory and “uniquely” affected her faith due to its ritualised nature.
  
  The Judge dismissed the pupil’s arguments against the prayer rituals ban.
  
  The High Court ruled the ban was both proportionate and justified and that Miss Katherine should be allowed to enforce the school's secular ethos.
  
  Reacting to the ruling, Miss Katherine said:
  
  “A school should be free to do what is right for the pupils it serves.”
  
  “The court’s decision is therefore a victory for all schools.”
  
  “Schools should not be forced by one child and her mother to change its approach simply because they have decided they don’t like something at the school.”
  
  The school, founded and led by headteacher Katharine Birbalsingh, argued its prayer policy was justified after it faced death and bomb threats linked to religious observance on site.
  
  Miss Katharine said:
  
  There were good reasons for the ban. Just over a year ago, a group of Muslim pupils started praying in the school playground at lunch times.
  
  When teachers tried to rein in the practice, they were abused. Glass bottles were tossed over the school railings.
  
  A brick was thrown through one teacher's window. Staff were reported to have been left ‘fearing for their lives’.
  
  Ms Katherine and the teacher were targeted with death threats, abuse and allegations of Islamophobia.
  
  The Muslim student suing Michaela is being backed by £150,000 in legal-aid money.
  
  In a statement, she also questioned why the Muslim pupil received '£150,000 in legal aid' to fight her case.
  
  It is shameful that public money is being wasted trying to take down a highly successful school.
  
  She asked: 'Can it be right for a family to receive £150,000 of taxpayer-funded legal aid to bring a case like this?
  
  After claiming victory, Miss Birbalsingh said: 'If parents do not like what Michaela is, they do not need to send their children to us.'
  
  Katherine said in a statement:
  
  There is a false narrative that some try to paint about Muslims being an oppressed minority at our school.
  
  'They are, in fact, the largest group. Those who are most at risk are other minorities.’
  
  I'll carry on fighting to defend our way of life. If parents don't like it, their children can go elsewhere.
  'Can it be right for a family to receive £150,000 of taxpayer-funded legal aid to bring a case like this?
  No. No, it isn’t. If religion is such a big deal for the plaintiff, send your child to a religious school. Secular schools should not have to cater to mythology. And the fact that taxpayers were forced to subsidize this nonsense is a gross misuse of public funds.
