Achimota School becomes Rasta student’s biggest cheerleader after initially rejecting him

Achimota School has become an enthusiastic supporter of the successes being chalked by Rastafarian student Tyrone Iras Marhguy, whom the school had initially denied admission based on his dreadlocks but had to admit him on the orders of a High Court.

The gifted Marhguy after obtaining an A1 in all the eight subjects he took at the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) as well as excelling at the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), had Achimota School publicly congratulating him and wishing him well in his endeavours.

Several weeks later, the school congratulated him for winning gold at the 2023 American Mathematics Olympiad as the 2023 Overall National Top Scorer as well as silver at the Vanda Science International Olympiad.

“He DID IT AGAIN!!!! Congratulations Akora Tyrone Marhguy. He has earned two awards from the American Mathematics Olympiad 2023 for his outstanding achievements in Grade 12.

Marhguy was crowned the 2023 overall national top scorer, earning the gold medal, after competing with over 150,000 students across the globe. He was also awarded the Vanda Science International Olympiad in the Silver category out of 38,000 test-takers.

He has officially been inducted into the International Junior Honour Society, 2023.Ayekoo,” the school wrote on social media following the ceremony at which he was awarded.

Achimota School in 2021 initially refused to enrol Marhguy as its student because of his dreadlocks, a manifestation of his Rastafarian religion, but a High Court in May 2021 compelled the school to enrol him.  Tyrone Iras Marhguy made national and international news as a result.

The school was heavily criticised for refusing to admit him. Now though the school has taken pride in the extraordinary achievements of Master Marhguy, regularly congratulating him and wishing him well. They are, arguably, his biggest cheerleader.

Evangelist Papa Shee says most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by Pastors. According to him, most Pastors in Ghana currently are occults and with the way they are been celebrated by their followers, they initiate them into occult groups without their knowledge. He mentioned that Ghanaians lack knowledge and that has always been the reason why Pastors take advantage of them.

Residents of Samreboi cry on gov’t to fix their roads

Residents of Samreboi are up in arms with the Government of Ghana over neglect of their roads. According to residents, It has become very worrying as their bad road network is affecting not only economic activities but also their social activities. Residents of the timber and Cocoa producing town in the Western Region of Ghana say they have been unfairly treated by several governments; the neglect they say they do not know what to attribute it to. A worrying feature of their roads they say is the fact that moving from Samreboi to neighbouring villages and towns become impossible especially during the rainy season hence bringing economic activities to a standstill. Residents say even though the year has been declared “Year of Roads” they are yet to see a kilometre of road being constructed.
