Seasoned journalist Kwesi Pratt has criticized Daily Graphic for what he describes as a misleading report regarding the government's position on teacher training allowances.
Speaking on Metro TV's Good Morning Ghana, he expressed his confusion over the newspaper's headline, which suggested that teacher training allowances would be scrapped, while the actual content of the article referred to allowances for tertiary students in general. "When I read the Daily Graphic story yesterday, I was totally confused.
The headline spoke about teacher training allowance, but if you read the body of the story, the minister was actually talking about allowances for tertiary students, not specifically teacher trainees," Pratt stated.
He also pointed out that the minister's comments on feeding allowances were misrepresented.
