The Head Pastor of Life Assembly Worship Center who is also the flagbearer of the Ghana Union Movement (GUM) Reverend Dr Christian Kwabena Adu popularly called Osofo Kyiriabosom has described the Akufo-Addo government’s educational flagship programme Free SHS as ‘useless’.
According to Osofo Kyiriabosom, the government has destroyed the educational system with the introduction of the much touted Free SHS.
Speaking on Accra 100.5FM’s ‘Ayekoo, Ayekoo’ with Nana Romeo, the flagbearer of GUM, said the modules of the Free SHS where students run on shifts has not been helpful in any way.
A section of Ghanaians have praised the government for the Free SHS but others especially from the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) have also kicked against the move.
Osofo Kyiriabosom said the students are not given enough tutorials as they are supposed to due to the changes in the academic calendar and the limited time they spend in school.
He said he will score the government zero on its Free SHS policy, questioning if the President made some assessments before introducing the Free SHS.
He stated that the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) should be voted out of power come December, adding that they are only interested in amassing wealth at the detriment of the tax payer.
“Nana Addo’s Free SHS is useless, it has not helped the country in any way, the government has destroyed the educational system. Did Nana Addo (President) and the minister of education Mathew Opoku Prempeh think through before coming up with the Free SHS policy? How can you tell students to stay in school for three months and return home for another three months? Are you sick? The government must be kicked out because they are only interested in amassing wealth and not fight for the plight of Ghanaians, we cannot continue to eat their crumbs,” he said.

The pastor is right in the sense that Free SHS is ***barred word*** to the rich but heaven sent to those parents and students who can pay.
Ghana lets brace ourselves properly the second Mahama Ayariga is coming. Concert.
GUM is coming. Ghana is not for NPP and NDC. We are tired.

THE PASTOR HAS SPOKEN SO WELL. WE IN GHANA SOME OF US ARE JUST SITTING ON THE FENCE. WE SEE THINGS GO BAD BUT WE REFUSE TO TALK TO CORRECT IT. GO TO THE SCHOOLS AND SEE THINGS FOR YOUR SELFS HOW THIS YOUNG STUDENTS CAN NOT COPE EVEN WITH THEIR SLEEPING AND LEARNING. YOU GO TO SCHOOL FOR THREE MONTHS YOU COME BACK FOR ANOTHER THREE MONTHS FOR SOME OTHERS TO COME AND TAKE OVER AND YOU SAY ALL IS WELL. WHO SAYS PEOPLE CANT PAY SCHOOL FEES THE GOVERMENT HAS RATHER MADE PARENTS VERY IRRISPONSIBLE IF THE CHILDREN GROW THEY WILL NOT RESPECT PARENTS SINCE THEY DID NOT PAY THEIR FEES. LETS BE TRUETHFULL AND STOP THE BLIND POLITICS. WHAT IS BAD IS BAD. EVEN WHEN STUDENTS WERE PAYING FEES THE SCHOOLS WERE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH RUNNING OF THE SCHOOLS EVE PAINTING OF SCHOOLS WAS A PROBLEM AND YOU MAKE THINGS FREE. THE HEAD OF SCHOOLS ARE THIGHT LIPED THEY ARE FACING TOO MUCH PROBLEMS IN RUNING THE SCHOOLS.
If this charlatan pays his tax just like every good Ghanaian; as his members pay their tithes to him and his 500 ghana cedis consultation fee, I think the NPP govt will have enough to build more school blocks t avert the double tack system. Theif and lier; who only who only milks the innocent for his personnal gains. GOD PUNISH YOU
This man is only interested to enrich his stomach . Look at his face properly as if he is drowning . If you wan to do politics . move away from FREE SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL debate so that you do not incur the wrath of Majority of Ghanaian's When collecting consultation fees you sound healthy in collecting it but assisting Ghanaian's parent to cater for awards is ***barred word*** in view. OSofo , you are the most ***barred word*** character
Politics in Ghana of late is cheap,who is this guy call himself pastor.Twaaaaaa.
Until the EC stops issuing out licences to 1diots like this one to run political parties, these are the kinds of things we will continue to hear. We've had enough of such jockers.
