According to the education ministry, eight Ghanaian high school students who were expelled for insulting President Nana Akufo-Addo in a viral video have been allowed to resume classes.
The ministry said in a statement that President Akufo-Addo intervened to reverse the expulsion of the Chiana Senior High School students.
The Ghana Education Service (GES) “was directed to consider alternative disciplinary action instead of dismissal,” according to a statement from the ministry’s spokesperson.
The students were initially suspended before being expelled by GES on Thursday.
