Is better to spend the state money on school children than leaving for our corrupt politicians to steal and enrich themselves.

IT IS STRANGE THAT, IN GHANA TODAY, IT IS THE EDUCATED FEW, WHO ARE WORKING HARD TO PREVENT OTHERS, ESPECIALLY OUR GHANAIAN CHILDREN FROM BECOMING EDUCATED. THE EDUCATED IN GHANA ARE SO SELFISH, THEY FEAR OTHERS WILL BE EDUCATED AND EDUCATION WILL NO MORE BE SPECIAL AND THEY WILL CEASE TO BE SPECIAL, EDUCATION AVAILABLE TO ALL. MORE GREASE TO YOUR ELBOWS OF NANA AKIFO-ADDO AND THE NPP GOVERNMENT. THESE EDUCATED HYPOCRITES WILL NO MORE RIDE ROUGHSHOD AND BE POMPOUS OVER THE LESS EDUCATED ANYMORE AND IT IS GOOD FOR GHANA. WELL DONE TO THE NPP!!!!!!!!

SO WHAT MONEY WILL PARENTS WHO ARE POOR USE FOR AKPETESHIE, INSTEAD OF PAYING SCHOOL FEES. VERY FUNNY, HOW CAN GHANAIANS BE SO NEGATIVE ABOUT SOMETHING WHICH WILL HELP PEOPLE GET SKILLS FOR THE NEW ECONOMY THAT, THE NPP IS GOING TO BUILD. THE FREE SHS IS ON, FULL SPEED, NO GOING BACK, NO SURRENDER. GHANA IS IN A COMFORTABLE LEAD AND CRUISING TO SUCCESS, PROSPERITY AND PROGRESS.

Is this economist telling Ghanaians that with all the resources available to the nation, the nation cannot afford GHC77 million to educate its youth.
Could he tell us what national expenditure is never a 'burden' on the nation's coffers. All expenditures ARE.
if we think educating our youth is expensive, try a nation of illiterates.
It is about time we developed 'can-do' attitude and spirit as a nation.

Derrick Essuman, lack of education is more expensive than what has been proposed.A responsible government will find the money by eliminating waste in spending, especially building a house in Ghana for $13 million and paying a fraudster GH56 million.Ghana should educate its citizenry for national development as done in all countries where we try to emulate, both social and economics. There are disadvantaged parents and children who can not afford to pay school fees and the nation has the responsibility to help. This article is premature, wait for the budget to be announced to find where the money will be sourced before any comments. Let us think beyond the box, that the colonial inheritance of old educational delivery is not cutting it.

The maths here is wrong. I am a parent and I can say on authority that boarding students pay between 500 and 1000 cedis per term, depending on the school. If we take the lowest charges for the about 400,000 boarders, that will come to about 200 million per term for boarders: thus 600 million per year. This is less the expenditures to feed the about 200,000 day students once a day. In all we could see an overall cost coming to over 700 million cedis, to put it mildly. Can the economy afford this for one year? Hmmm, we wait to see. Afterall as parents, we will be happy as parents to have everything free. We cannot wait!!!!
