After 10 years of preaching FREE SHS, the NPP is yet to formulate what the FREE SHS looks like? God be our helper, especially when the minister of education is all over the board.

Finance to see that monies are released, Agric to ensure food are readily available, Police? National Security? Informstion? Scholarship Secretariate? NPP & Napo are just beating about the BUSH. publish the Policy Framework first, Napo.

Committee for what?We thought NPP manifesto was a thought through document that needed no input from any quarters. Continue with your deceitful talks. Who does not kno
that this committee is just to buy time as NPP now realized governance is a different ball game.We saw the same tactics played out in the ministry of finance under the disable auspices of Ken Ofori Attah.Here, in his desperate attempt to buy time he labeled hard working Ghanaians as ghost.

Why this committee at this eleventh hour? What planning had the government done all this while it was trumpeting the programme all over the place? Is this an afterthought? Or it is just a ploy to get a group of people to be used as scape goats in the event of failure. Please NPP, for th sake of the continuous and uninterrupted education of our children, let the program be rolled out only when everything is set, with adequate financing arrangements, planned and uninterrupted releases, placements for all qualified students into SHS (aggregate 6 to 36) without hindrance. Anything short of this must see this programme stopped before we run to a point of no return. We cannot toy with the education of our children for political expediency.

it is only irresponsible parents who will applaud this free shs nonsense. committee for what? I thought u knew all. this is a ploy to vary the promise made to Ghanaians so that the govt can then blame it on the committee. these npp people think they are smart. no matter what committee they form it will fail. even advanced countries don't do free shs. education is forever so it's not cheap. all this will achieve even if it succeeds is mediocre people. will the ministers children and the president's grand children attend these schools they want to destroy?

This policy is going to be one of Ghana's worst policies ever to be iinitated and implemented. Its consequences and ramifications are going so so disastrous for the country in the next 20 years. All citizens should take off their political biases and do an objective analysis of the policy you will come to the conclusion that the policy rather have more disastrous consequences than any beneficial ones. A word is enough for the wise

I learnt before a students can enjoy this FREE EDUCATION he or she must get 20 or better in BECE. If the is case the then the poor is doomed. Because the poor have the children is public basic schs. Who Can't make these grades as compared to the rich children in private basic schools . So who benefits from this free education? If what we are hearing is some to go by then our education system will favour the rich.

"He said the Ministry of Finance role was to facilitate the release of timely money while the Ministry of Food and Agriculture would liaise...."
The word timely in this sentence is an adverb that should qualify the verb "release" and not the noun money.

The class teacher asks students to name an animal that begins with an “E”. One boy says, “Elephant.”

Then the teacher asks for an animal that begins with a “T”. The same boy says, “Two elephants.”

The teacher sends the boy out of the class for bad behavior. After that she asks for an animal beginning with “M”.

The boy shouts from the other side of the wall: “Maybe an elephant!”

I am challenging the NPP government to start a national debate captioned. '4 years of SHS vrs 3 years of SHS' Which is better? Mr. Elephant please implement the 4 yrs SHS now that you are in power because according to you NDC's 3 yrs is making students to fail in their exams. So massa be bold and make secondary education 4 years. Or maybe you were just arguing like stupid fools without thinking. I also support your 4yrs proposal so please don't disappoint me by shying away from it. Be bold
