Why does government even give scholarships at all? Most of these people who get scholarships don't often come back to serve the country. I agree with the new bill that they only give scholarships for only courses that aren't offered in Ghana. Even with that, the person being offered the scholarships has to sign a bond that they will return, if not, then they will owe the government for as long as they live. Government can seize their properties to defray the cost of the scholarship plus interest

Why must a third world country which lacks infrastructure spend huge part of our hard earned foreign currency on these courses that can be provided by our local universities.
Most of these courses are tailored towards the needs of their various economic needs, hence the failure of most trained outside fail when they come to manage our economy.

Awarding of foreign scholarships should be banned! Especially at the undergraduate levels. Foreign scholarships should be allocated at the masters level; and even with that I suggest it should be institution based. Here, well performed workers should be recommended for further training/studies by their respective employers. In a situation whereby such training cannot be acquired locally, then they can resort to the foreign universities.

I do not support the era of giving scholarships to undergrads and degree holders with have little or no experience at all. These folks always do not return to contribute their quota to the economy.

The only sensible person to have ever headed the Secretariat . All the monies paid to these foreign learning institutions for the past 10 years could build a better institutions in the country where the reverse could have been the situation vis, foreign students coming to study in the country instead.
Dickheads all over the place retarding the country's progress.
Kudos to the current leaders at the Scholarship Secretariat. Keep it up.

A brilliant Resetting Agenda. Keep it up Ghana.. And stop wasting our scarce resources. One other thing too is this: by opting for foreign institutions we end up paying our students stipends which is nothing other incomes, they are able to acquire personal assets like homes and automobiles etc.. This is the major reason why many of them usually opt for foreign scholarships.. nothing else..

A brilliant Resetting Agenda. Keep it up Ghana Asafu-Adjei.. Let's stop wasting our scarce resources in this manner building and resourcing foreign institutions at the expense of ours. One other thing too is this: by opting for foreign institutions we end up paying our students stipends which is nothing other incomes while still studying which they use to acquire personal assets like homes and automobiles etc.. This is the major reason why many of them usually opt for foreign scholarships.. nothing else..
