WE HAVE LIVED TOGETHER PEACEFULLY UNTIL THE USELESS NDC PARTY WAS FORMED.
''We have been vice presidents for far too long, it is time you make ONE OF YOUR OWN President.'' - John Mahama.
WHAT ARE THE REST OF US TO JOHN MAHAMA?
WE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEM.
THE USELESS NDC PARTY IS TURNING ONE TRIBE AGAINST ANOTHER
TURNING ONE RELIGION AGAINST ANOTHER
THERE WAS EVEN AN ATTEMPT BY ATTA MILLS TO poison football clubs with politics just for the SELFISH INTEREST of the USELESS NDC PARTY.
Everything that unites us as a peaceful nation is under attack by the USELESS NDC PARTY. Before they divide Ghana and leave us in shreds VOTE THE USELESS NDC PARTY OUT IN 2016.
We have lived peacefully without any TRIBAL OR RELIGIOUS POLITICS before the USELESS NDC PARTY WAS FORMED and their manifesto signed with blood. We don't need any division in Ghana. WE ARE INTER-MARRIED, AND WE ARE ONE PEOPLE. NDC IS DANGEROUS, VOTE THEM OUT IN 2016.
(GB3M3I KOME TOO DZI WO. GAM3I NY3KA NYI3AA AM3S33. NDC NFEE NY3 BULUU, NI AM3 NSHI NY3 Y3 OHIA MLI.)
An advice from a sensible GA who can read through the lines.

Edem,your argument is sound and well thought of. You couldn't have said it any better. I await a day when muslims too will focus on the "common good" and invest in social programs for the benefit of all.

I disagree with those who said Mahama polarised the situation just because he mentioned it in the SoN address. If there had a bloodbath some where because this, I don't think people would have talking the way they are doing.

Edem,
Thanks for writing such a sensible piece. I had taken up this issue way back in the '90s on Okyeame and debated it to the extreme and therefore wasn't paying attention to the present brouhaha which is simply a manifestation of something I had warned against a long time ago. But having read a a couple of articles in the last few days, a porous one by a Dr SAS, e.g., I decided not to sit on the fence any longer.
I just hope the Supreme Court shall issue a prompt, sane judgement on the issue asap. These fake, ignorant Christians CANNOT be given free rein to impose their doctrines on anyone in our school system, be it private, public or so-called mission schools, most fully funded by govt.

"On the one extreme, the Catholic Bishops conference has categorically told Muslim students to go elsewhere to receive their education if they don't want to conform to their “campus rules”"
He DIDN'T SAY THAT! He said categorically "ANYONE"! He didn't single out Muslims. Why do you relish so much polemics?

He doesn't need to name Muslims in order for us to know that he was responding to the hue and cry of Moslem students. Was it Tigare or any of the myriad of traditional shrines devotees who were complaining against this obnoxious attempt to force non-Christians to worship like Christians in this C21st????
Look, when the forefathers of the ancestors of some us gave free lands to the missionaries to build schools on, there was no condition that pupils and students will be forced to convert or undergo forced Christian rituals on a daily basis. If that were the case, they wouldn't have gotten the land in the first place.

Mahama is following the prescriptions of OIC.You remember a Muslim MP from Gonjaland declared that adulterous women should be stoned to death. AMA banning churches in classrooms, Northern Regional Minister accusing the Christian clergy of encouraging politicians to be corrupt. These are all plans aimed at suppressing Christianity to please the OIC.

HAS EDEM ASKED WHY BOKO HARAM RIGHT, LEFT CENTER? THEY WANT EVERYBODY IN THEIR SIGHT TO BECOME A MOSLEM.....HAVE THE MOSLEMS IN GHANA COMPLAINED...? A GROUP OF PEOPLE OR INDIVIDUALS CONSENTS AND PULL RESOURCES TOGETHER BRIDGED BY A PARTICULAR FAITH TO BUILD A SCHOOL AND INSTITUTE THE SAME VALUES THAT HAS HELPED THEM TO COME TOGETHER, YOU DECIDE TO JOIN THE SCHOOL BUT YOU WANT TO DO SO WITH YOUR OWN RULES.... IS THAT POSSIBLE? COME ON LET US RISE ABOVE THESE ISSUES. WE HAVE AHMADIYAH, ALSO A MOSLEM FAITH THAT USES KORAN AND THE BIBLE, IS THAT HARAM......PLEASE DONT START INSTITUTING BOKO HARAM PSEUDOS IN GHANA. A WORD TO ALL GHANAIANS IS ENOUGH

Going by your opinion,we will be right to also call Ghanaian Christians as extremists and fundamentalists.They are also boko haram because they are forcing people into Christianity.
In Islam,if u don't recite the article of faith,u can't pray or do the Muslim rituals.But Christianity has been made so loose that anyone can just do all the rituals without necessarily being a Christian.No wonder they register their members to know much offertories would be obtained at the end of a service.The greater your congregation,the more money obtained.
Isis,boko haram etc are a creation of the west.They created these to destabilize the middle and other places.Do these groups spare Muslims?Muslims are also suffering at the hands of these terrorist groups.How many Muslims haven't been slaughtered by these terrorist groups in Nigeria and the middle east.
Would I be wrong if I call the Ghanaian Christians as Christian extremists and terrorists?Because they are also forcing people in their way of worship.If u don't go by their rules,they sack u or punish u.Isn't the sacking equals the killing by Isis etc?Being denied education equals killing the fellow.

THIS PROBLEM MUST BE SOLVED FAST! AND THE ONLY WAY I SEE FORWARD, IS FOR THE GOVT. TO RETRACT PRESIDENT MAHAMA'S STATEMENT IN PARLIAMENT ABOUT THIS MATTER! IT IS BEST IF ANY ONE WHO WANTS TO SHOW RELIGIOUS IDENTIFICATION TO FIND A SCHOOL THAT WILL ALLOW DESCENT, TO ITS RULES AND REGULATION, OR WHICH IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE STUDENT'S RELIGIOUS BELIEVES , BECAUSE THESE CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS HAVE THEIR RULES AND REGULATIONS, AND NO GOVT, WILL RIGHTFULLY ASK THEM TO ALLOW THE FLOUTING OF THEIR RULES AND REGULATIONS! THIS ISSUE IS DELICATE, AND MUST BE CAREFULLY LOOKED INTO!!
