Ghanaian Reggae artist, Samini has revealed that the headmaster of the Ebenezer Senior High School denied him an opportunity to speak to his students because of his dreadlocks.
Narrating the ordeal in an interview, Samini says the headmaster apparently found his hairstyle inappropriate and hence kicked he and his team out of the school.
Samini and his team are on a school tour in Dansoman ahead of his annual music concert, Saminifest.
Speaking in the interview Samini said, “The headmaster of Ebenezer Senior High school decided that because of my dreadlocks, I was not fit to speak to the students of the school which is in Dansoman where I live, which is 5 minutes from my parents’ home.”
He however said, all other schools he went on to visit welcomed him warmly, including the St. Margaret Mary school.
Samini further noted, “At Saint Margaret Mary, I went there with my dreadlocks and I met the Reverend Father who is the assistant headmaster and then I went and met the headmistress herself. Then I went to the vocational school with my dreadlocks.”
