What does the Mahama NDC gov't means by an Ultra modern Kumasi central market? What comparable ultra modern market in developed countries of the world should Ghanaians compare this Ultra modern Kumasi central market?
We have been in this country when the uncompleted extension of the runway of Kumasi Regional Airport has been described by the Mahama NDC gov't as an ultra modern international airport comparable to any international airport in the US, Germany, France, UK, Holland, China, Hong Kong, etc, etc. So what does the Mahama NDC gov't means by an ultra modern Kumasi central market because Ghanaians have had it with mediocre leadership and propaganda.

I’m very pleased that the Ministry of Education is looking into this “apparent scheme or scam or con job” by these unscrupulous senior high school administrators, because I’m one of the VICTIMS of their diabolic scheme. If found guilty, they must be severely punished by outright firing (sacking) or fine them heavily!!
See, I'm caring for two of my nieces in junior & senior high schools in Ghana (names of schools withheld for the meantime). Sometime in December 2014, the niece in senior high school and her mother called and told me about “the fees for her second and third terms.” WHAT?? That, fees for both terms must be paid together in January 2015. So I asked, when the hell did we have that system in Ghana? Indeed, I was very surprised about what they were telling me, so I asked for the bill from the school and when they e-mailed it to me, Lo & Behold, I realized that they told me the truth. The bill combines both second and third term fees plus a slew of other associated fees.
Still not convinced, I wanted both of them to go to the school and get the government (i.e., ministry of education's) directive stating that “final year senior high school students should pay a combined fee for the final two terms”, but I relented not to strongly doubt them—based on the combined bills from the school.
So, I had no quarrel with them but to cough up the money for the two terms, but with a stern declaration that they shouldn't call or write to ask for school fees again for that school and here is what I think is going on there in that Mickey Flick (Ghana).
Simply put, it’s a damn “money making mechanism” for these corrupt officials.
"They're INVESTING the third term school fees in Ghana Government’s Short-term (30 or 90 days) Treasury bonds, which could have a YIELD of about 15%, sell the bonds later and CASH in the PROFITS. So, when school re-opens for the third term, in about four months from the second term, the headmaster and the school's accountant and, perhaps, other conspirators have made some COOL no sweat investment profits. In short, they’re investing the extra (third term fees) in Treasury bonds or saving for bank interest, make profit and recoup the principal later to take care of the third term—what an ingenious strategy in making EASY money.

Our leaders are very corrupt due to the education system in the country.The very people who are entrusted to mouled the future citizens to be example leaders with good morals ,i mean the school teachers/headmasters are themselves, all corrupt to the bone.We are in a country where headmasters of some of the best schools takes bribes from parents, before wards are admitted as students .Corruptions are taught by these pratice from the heads of schools to our future leaders at the early teenage of their lives, and even when still at school.Shame to all teachers taking bribes and over-payment of fees from school children.

Akuffo-Addo is actually insane and mad to suggest that he is forgiving the CPP. If somebody tries to kill the elected leader of a country and the person ends up in jail and dies from natural causes, why should Akuffo-Addo forgive anybody? Akuffo-Addo is basically insane to suggest that point. Nkrumah after all was too kind. We will be reminding you soon of how NPP elements including Akufo-Addo’s father put Nzemas such as Boye Moses in very small iron-fenced cages suitable for dogs and paraded them throughout the principal streets of Accra after the 24 February 1966 coup that overthrew Nkrumah. This was similar to what the Islamic State is currently doing now in Iraq. What did Nzemas do for this fate? And the old fool Freddie Blay is now on the side of this completely insane Akufo-Addo. How can the so-called liberal tradition of the NPP expel over million West Africans living in Ghana, of which many were born in Ghana, with only two weeks notice in 1969 and use the chance to steal their properties or buy their properties at bargain prices.

In this situation,to demonstrate this administration`s determination to stamp out this naked thievery! Those found to be in breach of this well-known policy directive,should be interdicted,and shunted to the side. Enough of this 'pussy-footing' with these 'greedy bastars' who are determined to discredit the govt.
Lay the gloves on these heads who believe they are untouchable!
Ignore the elaborate scams they have developed with corrupt PRAs,to do an end run of this policy. Get rid of these saboteurs ASAP,and let them sue the State!

Sogakofe SHS apart from double term fees are also charging final year students GH¢150.00 for what they claimed to buy generator for the school and if you don't pay, trouble for you thus putting undue presssure on parents. Ministry of Education must look into this to give reprieve to parents and students alike.

For this directive to be followed by Heads of Senior High Schools, then GES has to walk the talk,bite,make some heads scape goats. Because these heads always collaborate with PTA executives to violate orders of GES, all in the name of development in senior high schools. In fact, they create loot and share.ONE OF THEM IS BUEMAN SENIOR HIGH, AT JASIKAN, IN THE VOLTA REGION. THEY BILLED PARENTS OF THE 3RD YEAR STUDENTS FOR THE SECOND AND THIRD TERMS

I don't believe that the Ministry of education has summoned any head of SHS because this practice has been there since the introduction of SSS now SHS. I have paid such fees for all
my five kids that have passed through the system including one who is about to complete Nkwakwa SHS this year. No government past or present can deny knowledge of this act by heads of SHS over the years. I know for sure the ministry is just trying to put sand on the parents faces since this is just going to face out silently without any action.

Ignorance is indeed bliss. Please ask the GES to explain further and to inform the public whether even first term subsidy to the schools have been paid. Let alone that for the second term. These heads of schools are indeed performing magic to look after our children. I am not at all condoning any criminal activity. I beg to state that we should hesitate to condemn these heads without the full facts.
