The Methodist Church Ghana has responded to a Supreme Court case filed against Wesley Girls’ High School (WGHS), stating it is taking steps to secure official court documents and will defend its interests fully. The church’s Presiding Bishop, Most Rev Prof Johnson K Asamoah-Gyadu, emphasized that the school has always maintained an inclusive approach to education, rejecting allegations of religious discrimination.
The suit, titled Shafic Osman v The Board of Governors, Attorney-General & Ghana Education Service, claims WGHS discriminates against students of other faiths. However, the Methodist Church Ghana insists that its traditions promote fairness and cohesion among students, and that creating separate systems for different faiths would lead to segregation.
The church highlighted that WGHS, founded in 1836, has educated students from diverse religious backgrounds, including Muslims, Adventists, Catholics, and others, who have contributed meaningfully to society. The church also referenced a 2024 Memorandum of Understanding, facilitated by the National Peace Council, which sets guidelines for peaceful coexistence in mission schools.
The Methodist Church Ghana has received support from the Ghana Catholic Bishops’ Conference, the Christian Council of Ghana, and the Anglican Church, and remains committed to dialogue and collaboration with all stakeholders to ensure pe.ace and mutual respect among all faiths
