Chief Imam backs optional Arabic in public schools

The Office of the National Chief Imam has endorsed the concept of teaching Arabic as an elective subject in Ghana's public schools, emphasizing the language's global significance over any religious or sectarian connotations. In a recent statement, the Office expressed the belief that educational language policies should differentiate between cultural and linguistic tools from religious doctrines.
This stance comes in response to public concerns regarding the incorporation of Arabic into the country's public education system.
