Veteran Journalist, Abdul Malik Kweku Baako Jnr., says he’s happy with the Accra High Court ruling that ordered Achimota School to admit the two Rastafarian boys, Tyrone Marhguy and Oheneba Nkrabea, who were denied admission for refusing to cut their dreadlocks.

Making a submission on Joy FM’s Newsfile on Saturday, which was captured by wontumionline.com Mr. Baako also said the ruling is a wake-up call for the Ghana Education Service (GES) to exercise its supervisory roles over Senior High Schools in the country.

He insists the GES should use this opportunity to have codified rules and regulations to guide all such public schools in the country.

“I think it should trigger the Ghana Education Service to exercise its mandate and its supervisory role on all these schools that come under its ambit and consolidate, combine and codify certain rules that all these schools will deal with as an umbrella body.”

“I think that’s the way forward. Maybe we didn’t need to go through this if that grey area had been dealt with, but I am happy with the court and the judgment that has come. We need to continue it, and I feel it was needless.”

Meanwhile, following the ruling, the two boys have been admitted into the school.
