Deputy Director of Microfinance and Small Loans Centre (MASLOC), Maame Afia Akoto, cannot fathom why members of the Minority in Parliament are doing everything possible to tarnish Presidents Akufo-Addo’s dream towards free Senior High School [SHS] education.
According to her, the National Democratic Congress [NDC] since the launch of free SHS have had nothing positive to say about the policy, even including the Ex-President, John Dramani Mahama.
“All comments from their [NDC] camp in relation to the policy are nothing to write home about. Indeed, why is their wish so strong to collapse the policy? … They should be bold and tell us what is haunting them per this approach. Is it that they never believed we could implement it?” she rhetorically quizzed.
She was contributing to discussions on remarks made by the former president at NDC’s Unity Walk held in Tarkwa over the weekend on Kasapa fm’s Morning Show.
The Former President took a swipe at President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo for rushing to implement the free Senior High School (SHS) policy, hinting of a possible reversal of the programme by a future National Democratic Congress (NDC) government since it is not mandatory.
“Why should the government introduce free education now when the Constitution says it should be done progressively? In fact, it is not by force to introduce free SHS now,” Mr John Mahama underscored.
The former president predicted that the challenges associated with the free Senior High School (SHS) policy would not cease unless there was a comprehensive funding strategy.
But the MASLOC Deputy Director argues that “the only truth to free SHS existence is for Ghanaians to keep the NDC in opposition for long, since they have no good conscience towards its success.”

so does any constructive criticism equate to an ill-wish ? What is the point of having an opposition party ? that is the beauty of democracy so let all grown up and accept the fact that any constructive criticism is one of the pillars of any healthy democracy.
It was this policy that send them to opposition,why can't they attacked and make it unpopular,the former president comment on this policy is clear indication that he is more than incompetent,he doesn't have an accumen of being a president
Why is it so difficult for these ndc corrupt officials to accept the fact that what they couldnt do in their 27 years in presidency has been done by the npp for just 8years 9months. They have nothing good for Ghanaians. They lack vision, they lack common reasoning, they are short of ideas. i sometimes wonder if they are not same ppl who sat in the same classrooms with the npp's. which kind school they've been attending? God should have mercy on Ghana...

Because they do not want most Ghananians to be educated, so they can keep on deceiving them. FREE SHS is here to stay!
Ironically, the most vociferous of those who speak against the free SHS are those who enjoyed the free SHS. After enjoying the free school fees at the back the poor cocoa farmer they moved to the south and turn their back against the north. HYPOCRATES
