In a recent statement, Baffour Awuah, a prominent figure in Ghanaian politics has expressed strong criticism of the National Democratic Congress’s (NDC) zero academic fee policy for first-year university students. Awuah, known for his tenure as Minister of Education, argued that the policy, introduced by the NDC as a flagship initiative, could have unintended consequences for the higher education sector.
As the discourse around educational funding evolves, Awuah’s insights add a significant perspective to ongoing discussions about how to best support students while maintaining the integrity and sustainability of academic institutions.
