Dr Ibrahim Mohammed Gunu, Dean of the Faculty of Education and Associate Professor at the University for Development Studies (UDS), has raised critical concerns about the sustainability of the government's newly launched 'No Fees Stress' policy for first-year tertiary students.
Speaking on Morning Starr with Joshua Kodjo Mensah on Monday, July 7, Dr Gunu questioned how the policy, though well-intentioned, would be sustained in the coming years and proposed a broader conversation on its practical implementation.
While welcoming the initiative, Dr Gunu stressed the need for clear, long-term funding plans to ensure the policy does not face implementation challenges after its initial rollout.
He said, "I think sustainability is another conversation that we need to start to see how the policy in the first place can be sustained for the first years.
