NPP, Bawumia neglected Ghana’s Basic Education in their manifesto – Dr. Apaak

The deputy ranking member for the Education Committee in Parliament, Dr. Clement Apaak says the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) and their flag bearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia neglected Ghana’s Basic Education in their manifesto.
According to him, he cannot fathom why the governing party could turn a blind eye to Basic Education.
“As expected, I was eagerly awaiting to hear what DMB had to propose in the education sector. Boy, oh boy, and to my disappointment, nothing significant. Besides the proposal to fund the tertiary education of Persons with Disabilities, which DMB plagiarized from us; captured in our 2024 youth manifesto [certainly in our main manifesto] and a carryover from our 2020 Manifesto, DMB, and his NPP have proposed nothing to deal with the mosaic of challenges affecting the education sector.
“In fact, absolutely nothing on BASIC EDUCATION. Our side will issue a formal statement on this matter. The education sector is troubled, and it’s clear that DMB and NPP have no solutions to the challenges”, Dr. Apaak stated.
