"If you talk pɛ they'd say you're against Free SHS. It's being poorly implemented breeding dumb students which is killing education in Ghana. The failing is possible."

@godcomplex007 said:

"Setting up these kids for failure but the common Ghanaian parent fails to think ahead. Even when we paid fees, teachers used to go on strike for unpaid salaries and after tertiary, there are no assured jobs. The country in itself is a crime scene."

@GhanaBoylive said:

"This guy doesn’t know how he got there in the jersey, I’m sure."

@EgAntiq said:

"These are facts because the Free SHS policy doesn't repeat students and most teachers in various schools failed to attend classes most of the times because of poor supervision."

@EmmanuelSi94290 said:

"Former President Mahama raised these points when Nana-Addo was campaigning with FSHS, they spun it out to be he doesn’t like it. We should’ve done it progressively. Hopefully Mahama will win so that he can complete the projects he begun to make this policy better."
