This is a good idea, but individual should return their laptops once they graduate. There should be a returning office in each HSC area where students can return their laptops for collection after graduation or to replace their nonfunctional ones for new ones. This way there will always be enough laptops for everyone. Instead giving out the laptops to students to keep. This means gov has to keep buying same quantity of laptops each year. This can not be possible.
That is the system USA schools use and it’s working very well for both JHS
and SHS.

Make sure you share the laptops and I get my own before I will vote against you during the election. Fiasco governance.

This is not what our children need. Be a little more wise. They need more permanent classroom blocks and dormitories. These laptops are not returnable and if the program should be sustained, every year students will be again provided with laptops. This is bullshit idea. Use the available little resources to build more classrooms and dormitories and all students that will enter school in the subsequent years will enjoy the benefit. Stop fooling and grow up. You are killing the spirit of the New Patriotic Party. The stupidity is too much. Politicians are idiots. They cannot reason well.

@Jim, it is a clever ploy for them to amass wealth before they are kicked out next year. They are going to dupe us with some overpriced cheap and inferior crap that will not even last for two years.

This is useless initiative. This is a country which has unstable electricity power, schools under trees, food shortages in second cycle schools, no text books, poorly equipped laboratories in second cycle schools, lack of infrastructure in schools, poor internet connectivity among others is embarking on distribution of laptops. Oh my God,! What kind of leaders do we have in Ghana. Are we serious!

When will this nonsense stop in our dear republic? The most sensible thing for any government to do is to ensure that every school in Ghana has a well-equipped IT Lab with sufficient space and computers for use by students and staff. Using scarce resources to distribute laptops to SHS students is unsustainable, populist and unreasonable. Such policies can never sway any discerning voter. In fact such policies make me want to vote non-thinking rulers out of power. Which country does this?

Those Ghanaians criticizing this move by the government are still leaving in Stone Age era or just pure mischief and unpatriotic, always want to stay one place. Yes, some teachers might not have gotten their laptops but that doesn’t mean, all programs should stop. Why people, we are now in E-books world and the versatile tool for learning and teaching is laptop or computer.

Useless president. Always playing politics with education in Ghana. This exercise can be done by the ministry of education and not necessarily by the presidency. In the US, every student of school going age has a laptop or a chrome book: elementary school, middle school, and high school. These students also have free breakfasts and free meals for lunch. What are the loans and fundings from IMF and World Bank meant for? Sorry for Ghana!

Kwaku, you too hash on the old man. Education in us is state responsibility and not the president. In Ghana it is the responsibility of the president and his government. It’s novel in Ghana and he has to take credit for it. It’s big project as far as Africa is concerned, where electricity power is an issue, technology inclined teachers is an issue, but they pushing all boundaries and making it easier for our young generation to learn and compete with the rest of the world.

Another stupid idea. Half of these kids are sitting at home for the next 3 months. The country is bankrupt. The schools have no Wi-Fi, country has no reliable electricity, yet this dim-witted, corrupt and unscrupulous buffoon has the fucking nerve to launch something again. He thinks Ghanaians are fools. This buffoon is the worst president in the history of Ghana. We cannot wait for him and his bandit of thieving fools to get off our political space. Nkwaseafuor ne agyimifuor.

Please Ghanaians must be told total cost of this laptop project to ensure value for money before they can start distribution.
This approach will save our nation the usual bloated project expenditure and corruption.
