Rastafarian student, Tyrone Marhguy, whose request to an Accra High Court to order Achimota School to enrol him has been granted, has expressed concern that his presence in the school might not be welcome.

He said, “I have assumed there could be a possibility of fear once I get to Achimota School because considering the damaged reputation and a whole lot of other undesired consequences as a result of actions on their part, I don’t think I’ll be a friendly face they’d want to see considering the things they’ve been through so I am anticipating something of that sort.”

Tyrone Iras Marhguy and Oheneba Kwaku Nkrabea dragged the Achimota School Board of Governors, the Minister of Education, Ghana Education Service, and the Attorney General to court for refusing to enrol them with the explanation that they had to shave their dreadlocks in accordance with the School's regulations.

However, the Human Rights Division of the High Court presided over by Justice Gifty Agyei Addo, has ruled that the fundamental human rights of the two students cannot be limited by the rules in question.

Justice Gifty Agyei argued that she doesn’t think the Achimota School and proponents, including GES and the Attorney General’s Department, have made a compelling argument as to why those two students should not be admitted, especially given their rights to education as well as their rights to express their religious freedom.

Speaking to Evans Mensah on JoyFM’s Top Story, Tyrone Marhguy, though elated by the ruling, said he still had fears of being victimized at school.

He was, however, optimistic that with the support of his family and loved ones, he will sail through peacefully. “With the support of my parents and loved ones I should be able to handle it amicably.”

Meanwhile, his father has intimated that there will need to be further conversations at home with his ward and other family members on whether Tyrone should further his education at Achimota School or not.
