Outrage Over Half-N*ked Women on the Covers of Exercise Books Sold to School Children in Ghana (Photos)

Amazing that exercise books which are mostly patronized by primary and secondary school students would have such provocative covers in a country like Ghana. It's finally been picked and the outrage machine is in full swing.

 

Some businessmen have sparked a social media backlash which has resulted in various campaigns from Ghanaians after importing exercise books for students which have half-dressed women on the cover.

 

According to reports, the books are allegedly imported from China and are sold at Gh 1.20 (N60). 

 

As a result of the alarm raised by concerned citizens and on social media, the country's Deputy Education Minister, Samuel Okudzeto Ablawah, has kicked off an investigation to find the minds behind the grossly inappropriate books.

 

 

The minister took to Twitter and wrote, "We have drawn the attention of the security to help locate and stop the company behind these exercise books which appears to be targeted at our school children.

"While asking for leads from the general public, we urge parents and teachers to protect our children from such inappropriate materials," he tweeted
