Go to schools in UK and Europe, all kids have to meet certain hair style conditions
You didn’t understand his statement. Please take your time.
Hello youth of Ghana. You can take your own life with medicine.............for instance 15 paracetamol at once. Or... combine medicine and akpeteshie or weedicide.
The white kids use shampoo to kill hair lice while black kids hair becomes a breeding ground for hair lice
U are ignorant and a wanna know. I live in uk and u are s liar
No such rules
Ah don't you know gh leaders are confused and blind? Their brains must be examined. White and Asians kids die3 let them grow and have long hair in gh schools. What happened to hygiene andsafety shouldn't that also be extended ...

No such rules in UK whether year seven or eleven.
Very true. It's a big lie.
I, personally, want to contribute to the question Wode Maya asked. The time and money made to keep or maintain a WHITE HAIR is NEVER comparable to that of a BLACK HAIR. I guess that is the minister's concern. A white girl can ...

Discrimination against gh kids in their own country smh what is good for the goose is also good for the Ghana student
Even Wontumi, Abronye, Kennedy and Agyarko are all glorified here. I thought he is rather speaking against the NDC govt, so linking him to that party rather makes him an objective person, therefore making your posture warp.
Wode Maya is neither a dropout nor a failure. He scored grade A in Elective Mathematics in WASSCE. He holds a bachelor's degree in Aeronautical Engineering. How do you describe a science student who excelled in the most diffi ...

Mr Wode Maya. this is very stupid question. Mr Ablakwa needs to withdraw your Diplomatic passport for this question. In other words, you are asking, if a white man can keep his color or skin, why can't a black man keep his sk ...

Maya if you do not understood the policy of education please go and find out from educational sector. White hair are different from our black kids. Most our black kids abuse the standard of our school.

You see how stupid, you’re. That show how honest and trustworthy he is and not political bias
You didn't make any sense here. Go and beg for some if you don't have money to buy. Ofui.
Otoli or whatever you call yourself, this young man spoke the truth and stupid fool just above you said the white hair is different. In fact, we have lots of mad men in clean clothes. What?!!!
And you think you're different those mad men? The rules have been set in schools and I don't think your useless rantings here make any difference. Many people not myself alone know that blogger for what he is, gullible stupid ...

Africains we have our culture and tradition of which we respect so is the White but these cultures are not the same that is why african student are sometimes oblige to cut thier hair but the White are not. For example some w ...

You have said nothing. Fair enough by your argument. Did you grandmothers put on wigs and kinkys that’s not our culture too. So if they’re cutting the hair we don’t need them to replace them with fakes.
Gh judges wear wigs passed down from colonial jurisprudence even countries that followed the magna Carta to write their own laws like Canada, America don't require their judges to wear that shit on their heads but gh judges s ...

Is this the reason why they give you diplomatic passport to asking silly questions ???,
Because our colonial masters told us to do so, and we are obeying their orders even as we claim we are independent. The worst thing to happen to an individual or a group of people is to lose their identity, as well as to be p ...

You should know better. Ghanaian students are mostly boarding school students and who is going to attend to their hair when they are in school. It is a matter of hygiene. Do not ever compare white students to Ghanaian student ...

You're such also fool, ask yourself whose is going to also atten to the boyz?
Stop fooling ok
wOOOOOOOOYEEE FOOOOUUUUU PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
The hair is there to adorn us. You can trim it. In school there are boys and girls who can trim it for you.
Why shave it completely as some people do. Anyway it is their choice.
If you know the conditions in most of our secondary schools, you will not advise any parent to encourage the child to keep his/her hair. Water, electricity, even space to sleep. There is no time to care for kinky hair. Hair l ...

This is what I call colonial mind set. Until we unlearn and change our education system, curricolums we´ll remain inferior to other ethnics.
What is stopping you from going to live there... it's this type of nonsense talk that has brought us this far...are you discipline like the so called white people
People should spare this young man. He either hasn't got a girl child or may have a baby child.
He will learn with time.
This has nothing to do with black or white.
This ugly boy should shut up.
This is not right for the black child. We are all equal.
In my opinion, I think keeping long hair or short hair does not affect the brain or academic performance of a student. There should rules and regulations if you want to keep your hair short or long.
Since when did a White kid become a benchmark for a Black kid?
Why dont white kids cut their hair like we do, why are blacks soo inferior complex? Why is the white not copying us and we must be copying them...why?
You can only ask questions when you MofEdu reasons like a stupid child.
Its not bad for black kids to allow long hair, but it will turn into competition, and complicate things. Parents will have another burden, and also some students will look way too different from others, therefore students wi ...

Why are some Ghana highway and street signs in English and Chinese but no streets or highways in China are in any Ghanaian language? Why does the Ghana government choose to deport Chinese galamsey criminals instead of letting ...

That long hair of the white kid is their natural hair, bro does the African kid have long natural hair? Yes a few may have the afro hair which can be trimmed to make it more easier to care for.
Are Ghanaians white ? Stop the nonsense talk
Not everything from the white is good for Ghanaians and Africans.. There's a huge difference in the texture of hair between whites and blacks. Most of the high school students abroad are day students unlike the situation in G ...

Discipline in our ghana institutions must not be compered to the Europeans. We are Ghanaians and it must be seen as such. Sometimes unnecessary comparison is not fair. Black people breach their skin to look like white people, ...

More respect Wlodemaya but note other African countries who don’t cut their hair. Are they not even worse than Ghanaians in wearing wigs. What we need are people finding ways to make our kinky hair manageable. Like the brai ...

Dead and irrelevant debate.
Because that is how their natural hair is, they don't need chemicals to make it straight.
Black women are so inferior that they want their hair to look like oyibo. And that is the problem stupid wode maya
Blacks especially the current political black leaders are still suffering from “Mental slavery”.
What has long hair got to do with education?
Haruna go to the Western World & America & tell them this bullshit.Discipline ...

Lady students should be allowed to keep their hair. Just ban chemicals and weave.
Allow on one's own hair braided or straight back braids if hair is added.
