The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has expressed disappointment in President John Dramani Mahama's vision for education, following his State of the Nation Address (SONA) on February 27, 2025.
Addressing the media in what they termed the "real" SONA, the Minority Caucus in Parliament accused the President of failing to present a transformative roadmap for Ghana's education sector.
While commending Mahama's pledge to sustain Free Senior High School (FSHS) and enhance the Tertiary Gross Enrolment Ratio, the Minority argued that his overall vision lacked coherence and innovation. "Clearly, the President's speech lacked coherence and did not articulate clearly the role of education in the transformation of Ghana," they stated.
According to them, many of the initiatives highlighted by Mahama are already being successfully implemented under the previous New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration.
