Free SHS, NHIS could be at risk if Bawumia is not elected president - Ken Agyapong warns

The Member of Parliament for the Assin North constituency, Kennedy Agyapong, has urged Ghanaians to vote for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia in the upcoming 2024 general elections.

According to him, Dr. Bawumia will ensure the sustainability of the Free Senior High School (SHS) policy that has provided about 5.7 million children with access to education without the burden of high costs.

He also stated that the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), which offers affordable healthcare to Ghanaians, will be secure if Dr. Bawumia is elected president.

Speaking at the NPP final rally held at the University of Ghana on December 5, 2024, Ken Agyapong cautioned that these two crucial policies could be at risk if Dr. Bawumia is not elected president.

"Do you know why you should vote for Bawumia? It is because he will defend the Free SHS introduced by President Akufo-Addo. This policy has allowed 5.7 million children to enroll in secondary school.

"The only person who can safeguard the policy's long-term sustainability for future generations is Bawumia. Therefore, I urge everyone to vote for the NPP to protect the Free SHS, NHIS, and Agenda 111," he emphasised.

The NPP held its final rally to woo party supporters and the general public for their support ahead of the crucial December 7, 2024, general elections.

Former President John Agyekum Kufuor, NPP National Chairman Stephen Ntim, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, and other party leaders were in attendance.
