The President, Nana Akufo-Addo, is hinting of free university education after a successful
implementation of his flagship free Senior High School programme.
Akufo-Addo, speaking at an end-of-year party for children
organized by the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection at his
hometown of Kyebi as part of his tour of the Eastern Region, said free
university education was possible with a strong economy.
“I have two things to share with you on education,” he said.
“First the government treasures education and so, we will do everything to
make it easily accessible to all children.
“If God permits and we are able to fix this economy for it
to improve, we will even make university education free,” the President
stated.
On free education, he observed that the policy was here to
stay and that it was an “irreversible piece of social legislation.”
Free
SHS “will never be cancelled,” he stressed. “It is here to stay. It is an
irreversible piece of social legislation. When we leave, it will remain.”
