Audio Attachment: Listen to Fred Agbenyo on Peace FM's 'kokrokoo' |
NDC Deputy Communications Director, Fred Agbenyo has dismissed reports that the Akufo-Addo government is successfully rolling out the implementation of their free SHS policy.
The free SHS policy, which has ensured that students benefit from free education in the country; comes as a relief to Ghanaians.
The policy formed a major part of the campaign promises of the governing New Patriotic Party.
The policy which began in September this year has been warmly welcomed by Ghanaians who continue to praise the government for fulfilling its promise.
Commenting on the policy on Peace FM's Kokrokoo, Fred Agbenyo stressed that there are several challenges with the policy and so the government should not pat itself on the back for kick-starting the programme.
According to him, instead of President Akufo-Addo and his government prancing in joy, they should rather admit to the challenges in order to create "credibility for politicians" in the country.
Fred Agbenyo noted that the government has deceived Ghanaians into thinking that they have made education free in the country.
He said "parents will still have to incur some cost. So, that must be made clear…How do you call it free? It’s progressive”.
Listing some challenges fraught with the free SHS programme, he indicated that parents of students in some schools in the Volta Region, will have to cough up monies to "buy one metal trunk. You’ll buy one chop box. You’ll buy one student size mattress. You will buy one pillow and one electric iron…one blanket, one cover cloth, two sets of night gowns. You’ll buy pyjamas, umbrella, rain coat, handkerchiefs, sets of black sandals, white canvass, cutlery” and so forth as their children go to the Senior High School.

The most ***barred word***. entity i have seen in the whole World is NDC. Nation wreckers.
ooooo Agbenyo Diabolic. Are you still sleeping and dreaming? When you shared SUV's among yourselves without thinking about students in the Volta region Agbenyo. Your family is feeling very shy because of all that is coming out of your mouth, Agbenyo. Ashamed to be your brother Agbenyo
is better than sharing the money to your family and friends and ndc groups. the npp could have shared the money but they think of people of ghana than ndc.
***barred word*** man
Oooooh ndc, abrosuoooooo abrosuooooooo. Eniwuo paaa nie. Mony3 nipa papa koraaaa. Herrrh! Eeeiiii. Now your nakedness have been exposed big time. All the money you guys looted and squandered, now Ghanaians know what u could and should have utilised the money for but u guys chose and showed us how greedy ***barred word*** u guys are. Truly!! So u are hell bent on destroying any good thing the government of the day is implementing. How Wicked can u people be? It gets to show, it was never about the welfare of Ghana for u, ndc. It was just an opportunity for u to line your pockets. Oooh Nyame betwea mo ka paaaaaa for all the woes u inflicted on Ghana. Even in uk 🇬🇧 where I live, the government provides free education from KG to secondary but school meals, uniforms, school trips are not free. The parents have to foot those bills. The only people who get free school meals are those who have "Exceptional circumstances" and that's determined by the state. What is this eediot Fred talking about? U have no shame. We now know u will be in opposition for a very looooooooong time.
Even in the United States of America the government only provide free education that includes eating in school for free and not paying fees but everything else is the responsibility of the parents so this illiterate should and must STFU ..
EIIIIII GHANA, IF WE CAN HAVE SUCH PEOPLE IN GOVERNANCE, THEN GOD SAVE US. HE BETTER TELLS AKUFFO ADDO TO BUY SHITO, SUGAR AND MILK FOR PEOPLE IN THE VOLTA REGION TO CONSIDER IT FREE SHS. AHOOOYEA, NATIONAL DESTROYERS CONGRESS.
Why is he talking about schools in the Volta region. ***barred word*** propaganda nkoaa. Then the government must also give them transportation to and from school school everyday. I just wish the ndc party will collapse for another formidable opposition to rise.
Fred, seriously do you think governments should provide all this things you have listed?
I now understand why Kwame A Plus insulted you in his song. It goes like you know the truth but you will never mentioned it except lies. I understand understand why some literate people behave like that. I suppose they are illiterates.God save Ghana from these people who want to rule Ghana again.
