Did Efo Jeremiah John Rawlings think about the negative effects the JHS and SHS will have on Ghana before he dumped them on Ghanaians? If they were that good, why did he make his children write the GCE O and A Levels and sent them to universities in London? Still, many foolish Ghanaians stupidly followed him in their implementations. Why should Ghanaians cry about our educational systems now? Britain has all the needed facilities but has not abandoned the GCE O and A Levels. And that idiot Asiedu Nketsia the hypocrite sent his children to Toronto for education and better lives. You see how foolish we are and have been?
Apart from everything, let Ghanaians from the South who had no Free Education thank Nana Addo because their Children can now go to school for free. The Free SHS has now come to stay and Mahama can do nothing about it. It is now EITHER ALL GHANAIANS HAVE FSHS OR NOBODY SHOULD HAVE IT. Is Mahama listening? You and Bawumia’s parents were rich and could pay for your education but had it for free because you are from the North. Things have changed. It is either we all enjoy Free SHS or we all pay. This includes all people from the North.

Rawlings or the NDC never did a blanket rollout of the programme. You need to research before you comment. The project was borne out and piloted by the NDC but the results were never properly analysed before your idiotic government, the NPP took over and rolled it out. Who is clever here? All what you want is fame and money, and nothing else.

A fool like you doesn't know what expenses are incurred by a child in school in Ghana these days and so the claim that education is free makes so much sense to you. Get it straight into your empty head that fshs is not free at all. The npp has only used it as a conduit to loot money from the coffers of government. It doesn't take dumb people like you to know what is happening.

Ghanaian youth should wake up to reality, the FSHS in its present format is unsustainable. All across the rich developed world, public senior high schools are run on day schooling basis. The NPP government failed primarily because of the huge cost associated with the boarding facility. We are in debt up to our neck because of political propaganda the NPP had hoped would accrued to its benefit.

This should tell you that we have a bunch of fools in Ghanaian politics. FSHS is excellent for Ghana but l think students at the Boarding and Lodging schools should be made to pay for that. Every student in Ghana who is at the Boarding and Lodging schools should pay. FSHS should be limited to those who attend Day Schools. Maintaining Boarding and Lodging Schools is expensive. We should encourage Day Schools. Northerners enjoyed FSHS for far too long. So now, all Ghanaian students should pay or WE ALL DONT PAY. If we are going to pay, then people from the North should also pay. There should be no exceptions. Mahama, are you listening?

Ghana is never,never ready for a universal free SHS and free meals for all SHS students.It was a populist decision meant to keep the NPP in power but has backfired. In addition to the free allowances for trainee nurses and teachers Ghana's economy is on its knees. The free SHS must be reviewed. Parents with the ability to pay must pay and trainee nurses and teachers must take loans to finance their courses. Universal feeding for SHS students should be discontinued.Only boarders should be fed and the cost for the feeding must be borne by their parents. The Mahama government should examine thoroughly all the economic policies of the present government and those found to have contributed to making life unbearable to Ghanaians discontinued without any hesitation .The Mahama government should also discontnue any project of the present government that will not be of economic benefit to the nation. A typical example is the building of the Cathedral. Those that will be of benefit to the nation must be completed..They shouldn't be treated like how Akuffo-Addo's government treated the Sagelmi building project.

Feeding of Boarders to be fully paid by their parents? Hahahaha. You have not lived in the Northern part of the country before. Many of them will then not go to High School. They cannot afford transportation from their Hamlets to their schools every day. So, Mahama can’t cancel FSHS. His people are going to suffer.
The parents of Northern students cannot pay for their Boarding and Lodging. Hahahaha. Northerners in trouble.

Someone is in the Boarding House: No electricity Bill, no water bill, no accommodation fee, no security charges and no feeding fee.
Someone is a Day Student: pays for accommodation, pays for water and electricity, pays for his or her meals and is also responsible for personal security

The 30% who would have otherwise be on the streets as future armed robbers and prostitutes, invading your homes shooting your sons and raping your daughters and wives, spreading srxually transmitted diseases and HIV to your husbands tiday have a hope of being productive members of society and not misfits. If you think education is expensive cone face to face with an armed robber in your bedroom telling your wife to take off her pants with your son lying dead at your feet. You would wish that armed robber had gone to school.

The bebefits of free SHS outweighs the arrears. Mahamas job is to find a way to keep those 30% in this education environment. Nanas job is to bring them in. JDMs job is to make sure they come out qualified and be goid citizens.

There is money thst is spent on the education of a child be it in arrears or otherwise that is waste!

Akuffo-Addo is a wicked treacherous crook, who intentionally laid the cuckoo's eggs in Mahama's nest. He failed to invest in the energy sector to create fertile land for dumsor intended for the coming government.

He borrowed heavily, knowing very well that he would not be the one to pay, (another cuckoo's eggs). He purposely created debts in all sectors of the economy, including the infamous national cathedral, closed-down banks, and financial institutions, the road sector, FSHS debts, NABCO debts, abandoned and uncompleted projects, etc.

No wonder, Akuffo-Addo never finished anything he started doing, even his legal education or the infamous agyapadie scam. Hahaha, what an incompetent crook!
