Very wise and true words from the Rt. Hon. Speaker. I have always believed same and I hope parents will listen. The earliest a child should leave for further studies overseas should be after a first degree. At least by then s ...

Alban Sumana Bagbin himself was in Libya to hustle as an English teacher. Late Peter Ala Adjettey of NPP saved him for him to join politics. Had it not been so he would've ran back.Let him solve the economic problems and stop ...

The Speaker's comment is a bit debatable. There are many who grew up to their adult life b4 travelling but still don't feel attached to their families back home.Personally I feel it has something to do with our bad economy. ...

He said those category of people are likely to come back. The emphasis is on "likely". There is no debate here. Pls read over again.
@ Jimbo
Tell him to solve the economic problems. It's the root cause of the migration. He's been in National politics since 1992 and could even be more. 34yrs is enough period to turn around the destiny of a nation.
Ghana is a very bad backward nation with a very bad economy, go abroad and never come back. Don't send your children there rather give birth to them there
While their back is turned and they are running away from the law, ...

Ok send.
Yes, but the statistics is clear on that
There is absolutely NO statistics for to back his false assertions!!! These are all his false presumptions, that he is stating as if thery are facts!!!!
Mr Speaker is 100% correct
EMPOWER YOURSELF TO €ARN CASH DAILY before the month ends! Exchange a service for money. LET there be URGENCY in your quest to turn your life around through technical skill acquisition. Do it today, not tomorrow. Smart peop ...

CANADA VERSUS ASIEDU NKETIAH
Mr. Speaker please advise your party chairman first.
Very true, you send them at your own risk more likely to turn out as junkies.
Can Bagbin tell us how many Members of Parliament, Regional Ministers, and District Chief Executives in Ghana send their Children to Western Europe, USA and Canada in their very early stages? If the Children stay in Ghana for ...

@Frank Agyena-KariKari. How dare you post such derogatory comments about our Speaker! Don’t you know he can be your father? You this boy, you don’t respect your elders. One of these days, somebody powerful will turn you i ...

You're funny are they not of the same age? Both completed university around the same period.
It is funny. Frank Agyena-Karikari is not a toddler. I am older than many Ghanaians in Government. I am a retired Educationist in Uncle Sam’s country. My retirement money and my 401K can comfortably take care of me till dea ...

Nobody is immune from financial shocks, as long as you are here on earth, situations are still fluid so you said you are an adult, please talk like one

I did not read anywhere that the Rt Hon Speaker said parents should not send their children abroad to study. He said preferably, they should complete secondary school here in Ghana before we send them away. Ghanaians don't li ...

The Speaker himself is guilty of the comment he made. Why is he pretending to be innocent of the problems for which he is part of those who contributed for it to happen? Nobody needs his belated advice.He shd Get Out
I agree with this man 1000%. Ghanaian parents work so hard, send their kids abroad and live a lonely life back home
That is true but when they keep their children in Ghana, they remain unemployed. Sometimes, some of them become wayward and Armed Robbers. Will Bagbin not want his children to be in the Western World by now with gainful emplo ...

Every point you have raised is about cash. And the point about children in Ghana remaining unemployed is mute. Give is something more meaningful to what the minister said about the TIMING or stage before sending the children ...

@PITO. Frank Agyena-Karikari has a mental problem so don’t pay attention to his posts.
And you continue to read what a person with mental issues puts on Ghanaweb? You then have a serious mental problem that you need to address.
Is that a new law?
Who will develop Ghana with characters like you? your president went to school in Russia as I understand or maybe Soviet Russia so less emphasis on western Europe
Life is not about self comfort, that is selfishness, life ...

Any culture that proprietary living people over dead is a good one
Can you tell me one civilised developed society that do not respect the dead? To inform you organising big funerals is not a sign of respect for the dead, it takes more than that.
Mr Speaker, you are right.
The Children of Rawlings were moved abroad when they were toddlers for their education up to Uni. I wasn't surprised when one of the girls was wearing High Hills at her Mum's funeral. Somebody quickly reprimanded her to chang ...

If your nation was doing well, will anyone take their children abroad?
Rules for thee... None for me
This guy is a real smart man
Tell your speaker to go and pay back the double pay/salary he received for over 12 years. We haven't forgotten and he should get ready for jail as soon as we take power in 2028.
Facts but wrong analysis....so all this many years of toiling, u were only preparing vour kids so that one day thev can attend your two day funeral event ? What an entirely wasted life and left thinking? You didn't have a pur ...

From abroad they are given political appointments then they come even seeking dual citizenship, when the party loses power they loot and carry our money out
This is an important conversation. Rather than questioning parents' love, perhaps we should ask: What would make more parents confidently choose Ghana for their children's education? That takes us to education quality, implem ...

Trust Ghanaman to speak assertively on something he knows absolutely nothing about!!!!
Which values: lawlessness, corruption, inability to think critically?
AND PLEASE ASK THIS MAN WHERE ARE ALL HIS KIDS AND ASK ALL THOSE MINISTERS IN THAT HOUSE WHERE ARE THEIR KIDS SCHOOLING MAAASAAAAAAAAAAAA THEY SHOULDNT EVEN COME TO MY FUNERAL AT ALL AS LONG AS THEY HAVE A BETTER LIFE
Let's begin from 1st principles. How many politicians have their children in Government schools at both the basic and secondary levels.
They attend private schools and then continue abroad.

When she got there she swore that if she dies and anybody dare to bring her body back to bury her in Ghana we will see.
Even the pensioners dont want to come back and you think young ones will.
