“The parties involved have resorted to looking\u00a0at how best the interests of children will be protected and all that so certain procedures were established in terms of how we want to deal with the issue so, for\u00a0 me, it looks positive in terms of the opportunity that they are taking for our children.\u201d<\/p>\n
“Once things are in the best interest of children, all institutions, including WAEC and GES [Ghana Education Service], must also look at it so basically, we have come to some agreement in terms of the way that we want to move forward with the case,” Mr. Appiah said.<\/p>\n
