Kyeremeh are you not ashamed your self what you are trying to explained. The areas you put those school is far far from the town and no public transportation so where do you expect the poor child to come to class. This is common sense. Your planning is poor accept it.

Ignorance and arrogance allied with power is a most ferocious weapon to possess. That epitomises Adu Twum, the 'kentry' speaking miseducation minister who went to America but America never went through him.

What he is saying is not different from what Adutwum is saying. But it looks like he and his boss Mahama, they both have a common sense deficit. Why do you complete a school block far from town before you award another contract for dormitories? Reminds me of the same stupidity they brought to bare on the komenda sugar factory; Where there set up a factory before going to look for funds to provide raw materials. The ndc is such an insult to the wisdom of Ghanaians

Some of you are commenting here as if you have a brain damage. Did you hear the former minister say that there were buses provided to take students to and from school? Those of you with negative comments about Mr. Kyeremeh lack basic comprehension of the subject matter. The buses that the Mahama government has assigned to run between communities to convey students was extra motivation to get them to school. This Adu Twum has lived in California and understands how the system works but decided to play politics with it. Where are the lands in the cities to build the E-Blocks with the mind set of future expansion?

PLEaSE KEEP QUIET THIS IS NOT POLITICS. GO AROUNF AND SEE HOW TSHE NPP GOVERNMENT HAS CONVERTED SOME OF THIS SCHOOLS TO A FULL BOARDING SCHOOLS.

Ex minister, what is wrong with what the minister of education said that you are saying that he should shut up if he doesn't understand your so called community day school. Nonsense, go and check if those communities where we have those schools their populations alone can fill up the capacity of the schools. Parents who hard their children posted to some of the schools had to results to hostel facilities of individuals.

But sensible Nkrumah added boarding facilities because the schools were in the bush, exactly what Adutwum is saying and doing. Apparently Adutwum has more sense than Kyeremeh and Prof. Naana combined. Adutwum for Vice President with responsibility for driving STEM education, just as Bawumia was given responsibility for driving the digital economy. We need men of ideas as VP candidates, not arrogant, temperamental people chosen just because they're royals.

I would prefer to be a bushman than to bear a slave master's name like Mccarthy. If you think you're more refined because of your name then think again. You wish Adutwum was a member of your run down family!

NIFA and BENKUM SHS were situated in the middle of a jungle. NIFA was situated between Adukrom and Apriedi. It was a day school. Students commuted from these towns to the school was as about 5km from Apriedi and 4km from Adukrom. Later boarding facilities was added so it can admit students from across the country. Same can be said for BENKUM SHS. I hail from the place and the land for NIFA SHS was part of my Grandfather's farm. Someone should tell Dr. Adutwum not to inflict his ignorance on us.

You failed to tell him that, under his watch, the meagre Capitation Grant is in arrears for 9 Terms. Basic logistics like chalk and marker aren't forthcoming.

Insults by babies with sharp teeth. 70% of ghe E-blocks are in the heart of no-where. Construction is simply an easy avenue for chop-chop. DCEs were jubilating during Dramani Mahama's corrupt reign for being awarded contracts to build E-blocks. You can continue to make the luminary Dr Adutwum look bad with your acerbic comments but all Ghanaians are with him. Any time the Minister speaks, the NDC feels naked and resorts to it's known skill...insults.

When it comes to education there shouldn't be about who did well or not it should be a continuous process.communuty initiative was the best for Ghana since our cities are choker blocked and families are suffering.if the day schools are equipped with good TLM instead of this unsupervised boarding facility which is teaching this children nothing but bad behavior and nuisance to society behaviors are capped dnt we think it will be better? boarding schools in Europe are for the rich and supervision is strict.Anything free is not good let's add quality to our policies and above all these policy makers don't take their children to these schools so what are they talking about.pls practice what u preach.

Kyeremeh is being presumptuous for no reason. Your answer to solving the accessibility challenge was the E-Block, Non-boarding, Day School system. And so you built structures in between settlements, which couldn't be reached for students to travel to school daily. Whilst going about the E-Block idea, a 100,000 pupils were dropping out of school each year for non availability of placement places. The NPP solved the problem of school dropping outs, instantly with FSH, double school streaming and expansion of already existing functioning schools. All that Dr Adu Twum is saying is that the change in focus in solving the problem the NDC bequeathed obviously rendered the E-Blocks located on the Bush unoperable. With limited resources to government why should the NPP administration sheepishly continue with the white elephant E-Block project you started. Instead of being humble in acknowledging that Nana Addo had a better plan, you still insist your approach was a better way. That's stupidly egoistic to say the least. At least to date the country has been spared building a Corp of school drop out which would have totalled 700,000 to date.

Which concept are you referring to NDC people ? Which of you, NDC members, attended such day secondary schools or would allow their wards to attend E-Block day SHS ? The locations of the E-Blocks alone defeat the concept of the E-Blocks as they are far from the nearest towns. How does students commute to and from the schools where there are no taxis or trotro and the government didn't make any provisions for transportation of the students and staff of the schools.
