“Because of the importance of education, the first pledge to be met will be the Free High School policy. You know how much I have been abused and traduced. I have been vilified, with people saying that I am doing it for politics, I am trying to buy votes, I can’t do it, and I am lying to the people of Ghana. But by the grace of God and with the energy of the Minister for Education, Matthew Opoku Prempeh, in September, the Free SHS policy is coming.” ~ President Akufo-Addo
