*I won’t cancel the Free SHS Programme, I will make it better – Mahama* President John Mahama has reaffirmed his commitment to the Free Senior High School (SHS) programme, assuring Ghanaians that he has no intention of cancelling it. Delivering his first State of the Nation Address in his second term on Thursday, February 27, he emphasised that his government would rather improve the policy to address its current challenges. “Mr Speaker, let me repeat it once again. I, John Dramani Mahama, will not cancel the Free SHS Programme. I will rather make it better from the implementation problems that it has been facing,” he stated. He assured parents and students that his administration was dedicated to enhancing the quality of education and ensuring that the programme serves the best interests of Ghanaian students. President Mahama criticised the previous administration for mismanaging the initiative, arguing that the number of beneficiaries had been inflated for political gain. He noted that this had put immense pressure on the education system, leading to overcrowded classrooms, inadequate infrastructure, and insufficient teaching resources. https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vb7unSGJENy41xrVj83m
