He further stated:

I follow him on Facebook and I see his good works in the teaching service; such a fine young man who has dedicated his youth and passion to seeing to the growth and development of pupils, should rather be encouraged and supported for grooming our future leaders, not sacked...

Before concluding his remarks, the writer mentioned that the action taken by GES would have been valid if Teacher Kwadwo was engaged in drinking, defilement, document forgery, or caught missing contact hours with his students.

"Teacher Kwadwo, I'm proud of you. You're revolutionary by nature. you'll be fine. Keep up the good works. Ghana will not forget you. You've proven to be a true citizen but not a hypocrite," Yidana concluded.
