Kelvin Taylor, a Ghanaian journalist and outspoken social critic, has aroused national outrage once more, this time over the government's decision to cut nursing and teacher trainee payments. Taylor did not mince words in a scathing speech, labeling the decision "a betrayal of Ghana's hardworking youth" and warning of terrible consequences. "If You Can't Afford It, Stop Schooling!" - Kelvin Taylor's Hard Stance.

Kelvin Taylor attacked the government's explanation for eliminating the allowances in a viral video that has swept the internet. "This is nothing but an attack on the future of Ghana," he told reporters. "You're telling young people who want to serve our country that if they can't afford school, they should drop out? "This is not acceptable!"

Taylor's strong viewpoint has divided opinion, with some congratulating him for speaking up and others accusing him of exaggeration. But one thing is certain: the discussion is heating up.

For years, nursing and teacher trainees relied on government subsidies to fund their education. The unexpected move to turn these stipends into student loans has left many people struggling to make ends meet. Critics worry that this will deter individuals from pursuing important careers such as healthcare and education.

Taylor questioned the present administration's priorities, asking, "Why is there always money for luxury SUVs, expensive foreign trips, and political campaigns, but never for students?" His statements have touched hundreds of Ghanaians who feel abandoned by the system.
