Former President John Agyekum Kufuor has mocked the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for continually kicking against the free SHS policy.
According to him, the largest opposition political party in the country had always stated that the policy is impossible, yet the laudable programme is coming off next month.
Mr. Kufuor noted that President Nana Akufo-Addo had been consistent and firm in his strong belief that the education policy is what Ghana needs to transform the nation.
He said even though the majority of Ghanaians have wholeheartedly embraced the policy and even hailed the NPP administration, the NDC had surprisingly kicked against such a positive policy, which will boost Ghana’s growth.
“Nana Akufo-Addo had insisted that the Free SHS policy is possible during the two times that he contested for the presidency and lost and on his third attempt, he again stressed that the Free SHS will come, and indeed it is coming,” the former president said.
He admonished Ghanaians to embrace the program and also give it all the support that it needs to succeed to benefit the citizenry.
The former President was speaking in an interview with Silver FM in Kumasi Monday morning.
