Deputy Minister for Education, Dr Clement Apaak, has reiterated the government's commitment to honoring promises made to Ghana's educational sector.
The deputy minister indicated that the government's policy to support students in tertiary institutions is two-fold: covering first-year academic fees and paying the fees for students with disabilities.
Dr Apaak further stated that funds have been allocated by the government, adding that these resources will be made available to implement the necessary measures. "What I know-and what the Minister has said-is that the commitment is being fulfilled.
I say it is being fulfilled because, at the time students were reporting to school, the John Dramani Mahama-led NDC government had not yet presented a budget," he explained on Joy FM, adding that relevant agencies and institutions are being engaged to ensure the implementation.
