President of the National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT), Angel Carbonu has quizzed why Rastafarians over the years have not considered having their own schools in the country.
This comes after Rastafarian student was denied admission by the Achimota Senior High School with authorities insisting the young boy cuts down his hair before he can be admitted.
Addressing the press in Accra on Monday March 22 he said “I don’t even know why the Rastafarians don’t have their own schools, because they’ve been in this country [Ghana] for a very long time.
He backed Achimota school’s decision to deny the boy admission because they function with rules and regulations.
“We expect that if you want to be in that school, you obey the rules and regulations. The rules and regulations of an institution are not chosen and picked by individuals, they become standard and ought to be obeyed by anyone who wants to access the school,” Mr Carbonu said.
