What is this woman talking about? After all this investment and you are recording less than 90% success yet you feel it's ok? My God! No wonder we are not growing in terms of socioeconomic development.

It is shame really, to see a woman prof, as mother, with this uncaring attitude towards education.

Mr onipaba,or whatever u call yourself. The woman is responding to some unscrupulous politicians trying to make capital out of the misfortune of our young ones and you want to blame her? The truth is that the worse performance in the WASSCE since its introduction in 2006 occurred during the K4 admin. Do the trend analyses since 2006 and without a doubt the worse performance of the NDC regime is better than the best in NPP PERIOD!!! Stop politicising everything in Ghana, especially. education

Where are the figures. Bring the figures out for us to believe in you. Don't just spew anything like the woman did. She only said we have improved without any figures to back it up and you are doing the same thing. &&&This result is not a matter of comparing previous years, the result is bad no matter what improvement we have made. Will you be happy if almost half of your children fail in their exam? This is not politicizing anything, our children are slowly dying. Those in charge only think about theirs. In this modern world who will accept this? Even 80% is not accepted in some circles. We must strive for perfection and stop being satisfied with meager things.

The Education Minister stressed that though there has been an improvement, it is not enough and so more needs to be done. What is wrong with her statement?

Prof. Opuku Agymang the 2016 WASSCE results may be better,but not good enough. We must go for a change of direction as a nation. We must change the government. Ghana is accepting midiocrity and that is not acceptible.
We need Nana Akufo-Addo to come and solve the dumsor,fix the educational failures,repair the economy and put smiles back on the faces of our workers,our youth and every Ghanaian by also solving the social imbalance by fixing our NHIS.
The NDC is destroying Ghana and that we will not accept.

I think the professor would have done us a big favor if she had compared this year's figures at least to the last two years in order for people to better assess the performance of the students.Better still, to even make it better, these figures need to be compared with the results of other countries who are part of WAEC to better assess how well the students did. Internal benchmarking isnt always the best.

See this rotten egg. Stupid woman, I mean she's very very stupid. Defending her stomach. So insensitive, obnoxious. NDC traits, that all Ghanaians are dumb, save themselves. Sometimes one wonders why people allow politics to turn them (some of them fine intellectuals as they are) into beasts, animals. They talk, act and behave like brainless stooges. What sense does it make to try hard and defend this kind of massive exam failure? To score cheap political points or what? For her to allude that last year's WASSCE results were better than this year's, shows how insincere she is towards the people of Ghana, and the damage she's causing to our education. The country is really sick, for its leaders are hypocrites, and haters of the truth. Would this tomfoolery kind of cheap propaganda by this so-called professor change the fortunes of this bloody party called NDC. This 3-year nonsense is the cause of all this. Bad educational policies formulated by shallow-minded buffoons and nincompoops. I used to hold this woman in high esteem, until she joined the NDC bandwagon of deceit, lies, corruption, graft, impudence, arrogance, haughty behaviour/attitude, pettiness, non-performance, foul language.

It's always very easy and simple to talk statistics with our future leaders.

What is the reality. How many of these results (ranges) can smoothly and successfully gain access to the next level of our academic ladder. What happens to the unfortunate ones where do they find themselves.

Some of you wolfs in a sheep cloth politician sometimeso if not all times talk and behave like politics is the end of everything.
I want you some of our readers to note the processes or revolutions the universe has gone through a day will come where these so called politicians will take over the agony and the hardships our unfortunate brothers and sisters face daily under the scorching sun and pressure from our surroundingsite.

This world is a circle so think twice when you are given the opportunity and privilege to serve
