Haruna Iddrisu hits back at Dr Bawumia over Free SHS claims

“Over the weekend, the New Patriotic Party leadership were in Kumasi for the election of its national leaders… Significant at that forum were comments attributed to the flagbearer and presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party, to which he said that the Free Senior High School is suffering,” he said.

Minister of Education, Haruna Iddrisu, has rejected claims by former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia that the Free Senior High School (SHS) programme is facing challenges.“I don't want to believe that the Free Senior High School did not suffer in the last decade or eight years, and that every qualified BECE student got admission to a secondary school of his or her choice.
