Free SHS Policy Was A Huge Burden Right From Beginning – IMANI Africa

Director of Strategy at IMANI Africa, Selorm Branttie has asserted that his outfit feels vindicated with regard to calls for the review or suspension of the the Free Senior High School (FSHS) policy.

According to him, IMANI Africa foresaw the current challenges with funding of the policy, thus it is “a kind of IMANI told you so” moment.

In an interview on Joy FM’s News Night on Thursday, he stressed that the policy was a huge burden right from the beginning.

“As far back as 10 years ago when this policy was mooted during the campaign of the NPP in the 2012 election, IMANI sounded a very big warning about the fact that this was a kind of a trojan horse that will bring complications in the future,” he said.

He added that, “unfortunately the reality has caught up with us and we now have to grapple with very hard decisions because we have nurtured this kind of freebie mentality to be pervasive in the psyche of the modern Ghanaian parent.”
