Vice President Alhaji Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has reaffirmed the government’s commitment to ensuring that bright but needy students access university education in the next New Patriotic Party (PNP) government.
This would see the government’s Free Senior High School (SHS) flagship program achieve significant and desirable results.
Vice President Alhaji Dr. Bawumia said this when he addressed the separate durbars of Kwapong chiefs and people in the southern Asunafo district and Nkasiem in the southern Asutifi district as part of his daily visit to parts of the Ahafo region. Tuesday.
Dr. Alhaji Bawumia said that the next PNP government would identify and provide “soft loans” to qualified SHS graduates, but that it could not afford to continue their education at university or college to do so.
The vice president said the government had delivered on many of its 2016 election campaign promises and deserved the votes of the electorate and called on Ghanaians to renew the government’s mandate to push the nation’s development to the next level.
Alhaji Bawumia said that the previous administration almost collapsed the National Health Insurance Plan and the National Ambulance Services, but added that the government had revived all these services due to its competent economic management.
The vice president said that the implementation of the free SHS, One-District-One-Factory, Planting for Food and Jobs and One Village One Warehouse, the new cocoa policy, the Zongo Development Fund, as well as the provision of textbooks and Free meals for the students were unprecedented.
He pleaded with Ghanaians to make informed decisions when they go to the polls on December 7, comparing the eight years of the NDC administration with the three and a half years of the NPP.
Nana Obuobi Forkuo I, the head of Kwapong praised the vision and efforts of the government of President Nana Akufo-Addo towards the processes of national reconstruction.
