On October 7, 2019, Regina Amegah organized a massive demonstration that took over the airwaves over the low rate at which students are admitted into the Ghana School of Law.

Out of the 1,820 students who sat for the entrance exam, only 128 students passed – meaning only 128 got 50 percent or better

Although Regina herself was one of the 128, she convened the students under the auspices of the National Association of Law Students and put up the protest.

In a separate report by YEN.com.gh, Juventus Duorinaah, a gentleman in Ghana made history by becoming the very first person with a hearing impairment to graduate from law school in the country.

Announcing the brilliant feat on social media, the University of Ghana Law Students' Union stated on their official Twitter handle that the young man painstakingly completed his law program with his main means of communication being the Ghanaian Sign Language.
