The Ghana Education Service (GES) has dismissed reports circulating in sections of the media claiming that Mr. Michael Owusu Afriyie, popularly known as Teacher Kwadwo, has been reinstated into the Service.
In a statement signed by Daniel Fenyi, Head of Public Relations at GES, the Service clarified that the reports are false and should be disregarded by the public.
“Mr. Owusu Afriyie has not been reinstated. However, if he believes that his dismissal, which happened in 2021, is contestable, he is encouraged to submit a formal petition in writing for due consideration,” the statement read.
Teacher Kwadwo, a teacher, comedian, and social media personality, was dismissed from the Service in 2021 over alleged professional misconduct, a decision that generated wide public debate.
The GES urged the public to rely only on verified information from official channels to avoid being misled by unsubstantiated reports.
