Social media has been buzzing since a photo of Achimota School’s potential team for this year’s National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) surfaced on Friday, June 2.

Conspicuously visible among the students was Tyrone Marhguy, a young man who found himself at the center of a controversy that shook the education sector two years ago.

Tyrone was spotted in the social media post depicting Achimota School’s trial session ahead of the 2023 NSMQ season.

BACKGROUND SEARCH

In June 2021, following the court ruling, Tyrone Marhguy went to Achimota School and sat for his end-of-term examination just hours after being enrolled.

Apparently, he was one of two boys who cried foul because the school had denied them admission, citing their hairstyle as a violation of the school’s code of conduct which resulted & created so many controversies in the country.

The Rastafarian students dragged the Achimota School Board of Governors, the Minister of Education, Ghana Education Service, and the Attorney General to court for refusing to enroll them. Achimota School insisted that they comply with the school’s regulations by shaving their dreadlocks.
