I am a short dark bare headed man who has never experienced the good qualities of a grey hair. I lost all my hair through thick of smoke I got my self into and now causing me kidney failure.

My great grandfather is a traitor and a thief; my father followed his steps and ended up in prison,

I inherited all their ill gotten wealth and want to fulfil the dream my father had about me when he was in prison that I will one day become the head of state to release him from prison.

My father cautioned if I have to sell the properties to become what he dreamt of I have to

Now I have sold all the treasure bequeathed to me to enable me become head of state. Unfortunately failure has been my portion and I’m over 70 years of age; my father too is no more. This is not my dream but my fathers.

Who am I? GIVE YOUR ANSWERS……HEHEHE I have not mention anyone’s name oo

This is sheer propaganda and a strategy to get more votes for next year's election. Why wait this time. All I see is a continual struggle for power without a genuine interest of the people at heart.

Clearly this NDC gov't is not serious at all. The discredited propagandist nonsense it seems still reigns supreme as a forefront policy position of the Mahama NDC gov't and the results has been a disaster as every Ghanaian can witness from the educational sector.
There is no seriousness with this joke of a gov't and in 2016, Ghana will speak to it.

Several Headmasters of second cycle institutions in the country are facing severe financial challenges, some of who have been threatened with court action by angry suppliers of food items, stationery and other key materials, to their schools.

Cecilia Kwakye-Coffie, President, Conference of Heads of Assisted Secondary Schools (CHASS), who made this disclosure, said that government had not paid absorbed fees and feeding grants for the schools in the country for two terms – thereby leaving them heavily indebted.

“The truth of the matter is that for more than two terms absorbed fees and feeding grants have been in arrears, thus plunging the schools into needless financial insolvency and disrupting the academic calendar.

“Heads of schools do not have the peace to deliver on their core mandate since they constantly suffer harassment from goods and service providers. In fact, some suppliers have threatened court action,” she openly lamented.

Mrs. Kwakye-Coffie made the observation during the 53rd meeting of CHASS which was held at Tamale, the Northern Regional capital. It was massively patronized by members of CHASS.

Government pays a feeding grant of GH¢3.30 per student for a day, for students in the three northern parts of the country, but the money has not been paid for two terms now.

Government is also supposed to pay GH¢29 as subsidy for students across the country, which is used to pay for utilities, sports programmes and other events, but the amount has also not been paid for two terms.

Mrs. Kwakye-Coffie recounted how some heads of schools had lost their lives, some maimed and others had had their properties and homes vandalized by angry students, due to lack of money to run the schools properly.

“Our clients, including adolescent boys and girls, do not care whether payments have been made or not. At the least discomfort, they take to the streets and destroy lives and properties,” the CHASS president, bemoaned.

She passionately appealed to the authorities concerned to take quick measures to remedy the situation so as to help save the poor headmasters from extreme hardship and pressure.

“Our take is that, if the authorities are finding it difficult to pay the absorbed fees to the schools, then a decision should be taken to put these items back on the bill. This will reduce a lot of pressure on government,” the CHASS president suggested.

HOW WILL THIS NDC GOVERNMENT COPE WITH WHAT THEY COULD NOT HANDLE AND MANAGE PREVIOUSLY AS STATED ABOVE AND NOW THEY GOING TO ADD UP MORE PROBLEMS TO WHAT THEY COULD NOT HANDLE INITIALLY???

Before we start either jubilating or otherwise, lets pause to make a critical analysis of whats going on. the CHASS at their just ended meeting in Tamale lamented at thier plight coz govt had not paid its share of the feeding costs for two semesters and that has led to a lot of problems including life threatening and court suits for a number of Heads of our institutions.They also reiterated that this has led to a number of casualties (even fatalities) arising from student unrests due to feeding issues.
My Question is this: If the govt had all this money, why havent they paid the arrears? It makes sense to redeem your debt before you embark on a new project. Is this another case of politics as usual or irresponsible leadership? Ohh Ghana!!!

This is completely camouflage. When at all will the ndc tell us the truth. The GES have already released the fees and people have started paying, how come do you call it free? You are still going to loose if even you make education free up to university level. So you know it can be possible now, God punish you.
