The Ghana Education Service (GES) has directed management of Wesley Girls\u2019 High School to allow Muslim students at the school to fast in the ongoing Ramadan.<\/p>\n

It comes after reports that the headmistress of the school has denied a Muslim student her right to fast during the ongoing Ramadan. The development has sparked concerns among Ghanaians including some Muslim lawmakers.<\/p>\n

Reacting to the development, the GES in a statement asked the schools in the country to allow the students who are Muslims the room to fast.<\/p>\n

It however asked parents to sign undertaking that they will not hold the schools responsible for any adverse health implication as a result of the fasting.<\/p>\n
