The hallmark of NDC is thievery. What do they care about education? NDC, our stupidity at the polls is our current suffering.
Your message was Free SHS not quality WE asked what about quality. Stop telling lies
This is all talks as the NPP has no education policy to deal with the current decline in educational standards.
Ghanaian media will make mountains out of anthills. The other day they were calling artistes organizing a Dumsor-vigil CELEBRITIES. Is every artiste a celebrity? First and foremost the power problem is a cumulative and govts ...

Should we rather do our mathematics this way boss: That education in our country has slumped to its lowest and there was are the factors which are causing this and its impact on economic growth.
Shouldn't we rather do our mathematics this way boss: That education in our country has slumped to its all time lowest.Therefore what are the factors which are causing this and its impact on economic growth.
LOOK AT THIS MAN WITHOUT A CERFITICATE TALKING THIS, BRING YOUR CERTIFICATE AND THEN WE WILL LISTEN TO YOU.
What does this Akuffo Addo knows about education.He should shut his big mouth up and think of himself.
Akufo Addo only badmouths Ghana. He never sees anything good about Ghana. All he wants is power. He has NO PLANS, NO SOLUTIONS, NO MANIFESTO, NO VISION, NO CLUE!
I WOULD NOT HAVE SAID IT ANY BETTER. IS THIS MAN A GENUINE LAWYER? I HAVE BEEN READING DIFFERENT VERSIONS ABOUT HIS QUALIFICATION AND SO FAR NO CONCRETE ANSWERS. IF GHANA'S EDUCATION IS BAD, IT MUST HAVE STARTED WITH HIM. HOW ...

Charity begins at home. It’s the corrupt and dubious so called Ghanaian leaders like Akuffo Addo who bribe and sneak their way to the helms of TOP JOBS without the relevant qualifications who are making Ghana’s education ...

I was expecting to read this and hence not surprised at all. For the likes of the NPP, this is not the first time Ghana is participating in large-scale international assessments like the one reported by OECD. There is another ...

Akufo Addo will be vindicated when he shows us even a copy of his Law Certificate. That should not be hard to do, should it?
The hypocrisy about this is that, the NPP didn't notice that the standard of education was so bad in 2003 and 2007 whiles the results of the TIMSS were just as the results released by OECD.
This will not win power for NPP.never
NPP is right on this. We need education that really trains people to be very productive. It does not mean education must be free. It means creating enabling environment for parents to be able to sponsor their kids.
One of ...

Educating our children is enshrined in the constitution. It is mischievous for the NPP to pretend they invented the idea. In any case in 1959 when Nkrumah mooted the idea of free education, the Danquah, Dombo, Busia faction ...

Tell me, if this fall in standard of education started by Mahama again,, Ghanaians, do you think Akuffo Addo's NPP Government coming to change Ghana to developed country by 2 weeks. Give our President a break.Smh
Is Akufo Addo saying Ghana's education system was perfect before Mahama? How was it under Kufuor? Nkrumah had FREE COMPULSORY EDUCATION. Didn't the Danquah/Busia folks overthrow him?
This is not true.The NPP has colaborated with IEA & the international community in several ways & many instances to downgrade Ghana.I heard that useless & irresponsible nana akomea leaving in his mothers house talking about t ...

To me, I don't really know why the NPP should be make noise about this. The question should be, How many countries were chosen and how many countries do we have in Africa alone, not talk of the whole world. So they can't say ...

Npp is party that does not think before they act because any sensible party has to analyse the methodology employed for a study before making definitive statement about Ghana's educational system.
I want to get something clear. Is it the quality of education that we came last or number of enrollment? In terms quality Ghana will never come last we are still among the top if it comes to quality of education especially at ...

Akuffo Addo completed with third class n he want free education, keep mute nana addo
Nana keep on talking and the wise ones will hear and repent: IF YOU TALK TO THE FOOLISH ONE HE WOULD HATE YOU AS THE BIBLE SAID
I wish to draw your attention to the fact that it was an opportunity for Ghana to be included in the exercise. Only four countries in Africa including Ghana were selected for the exercise.
Akuffo Addo what? Is it not a provision in our constitution to progressively give free education? So what kind of vindication? Why is it that these cult members always want to ascribe any good thing to the cult leader but whe ...

Look at people speaking. Akufo Ad do himself what certificate has he got?.He has no morale right to active on education since he has no certificate.
