Is marriage the only achievement you can think of even in this 2016? What's your beef if she doesn't? And by the way, she hasn't because she doesn't want to get involved with people like you .

A doctor and his wife are having a fight at the breakfast table.

Husband gets up in a rage and says, "And you are no good in bed either," and storms out of the house.

After sometime he realizes he was nasty and decides to make amends and calls home.

She comes to the phone after many rings and the irritated husband says, "What took you so long to answer the phone?"

She says, "I was in bed."

"In bed this early, doing what?" Shouts the doctor. "Getting a second opinion!"

This is refreshing news. This is the kind of news Ghanaians want to hear not the daily abuses of politicians with their corrupt ways, without politicies to help eliminate poverty and improve the lots of all Ghanaians.

What about those from villages without one-tenth of the educational facilities in Accra who get trained as doctors? Doctor Amina was more advantageously placed to become a medical officer than those from the villages.

I tip my hat for you Dr. Amina Sanni-Toure. You have not just inspired only the zongo community, but young women in general. Additionally, you have inspired the poor and those who have been sitting on the fringes of fear and mediocrity to be awaken to challenges that confront them. It is my prayer that the almighty God, the gracious and the merciful continue to guide you, bless you spiritually,physically, and bless your career and ministry.

No you have missed the point. The point is their parents give them away to marriage at an early age. She has beaten the odds and many more are going to follow. They are very competitive if you show them the way.

You a Christian School opened her up to success. Only in Ghana will a Muslim go to a Christian school and not harassed.
Much as I am proud of her, I am equally proud of our religious tolerance and accommodation. I am also proud of the educational policies laid down by Dr. Kwame Nkrumah and his CPP party on education.

No leader in Ghana has come close to Dr. Nkrumah. Let's go back to revive his plan FOR Ghana THAT WAS ABANDONED IN 1966.

Ayekoo Dr. Amina. Kudos to the high school that showed her the way.

Whys is it that every well educated Muslim went to a parochial school?

let us bring down the Boko haram girls to educate in Ghana. I know they will love it so much.
