Anthony A. Karbo, a Deputy Communications Director of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) has made a promise to expose the actual truth about President Mahama’s “Progressive Free SHS” policy; a replica of the NPP’S much hyped free SHS policy.

Speaking on Neat FM’s morning show “Ghana Montie,” he stated emphatically that the President’s Progressive Free SHS is not free and he will provide the necessary evidence to back his claims.

“School will reopen soon and we will provide evidence of school fees paid by parents for their wards. Just in my constituency alone, I paid a whooping sum to support natives. In Lawra secondary school, I gave admitted students 700GHC each as tuition fees. Is this the free education they [NDC] are talking about? He queried.

However, Kofi Adams, the National Organizer of the ruling National Democratic Congress insisted that the tuition is absolutely free but parents had to bear that cost for some necessities like Friday wears and other things that isn’t covered by the policy.

But his claim was rejected by Karbo that, “There is nothing like free in Mahama’s policy and I know parents will decide on that come December 7. The policy is not free, it is not free, or maybe only NDC members are benefiting from that policy.”

So far statistics available shows that the government have been able to complete 10 community day SHS Blocks out of the 200 it promised after the 2012 elections whereas 123 others are at various levels of completion.
