A member of the Communications team for the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Vera Wiredu, has praised the impact of the Free Senior High School policy initiated by the administration of President Akufo-Addo.

During an appearance on TV3’s New Day program,Madam Wiredu highlighted the policy's success in achieving its social intervention objectives.

She pointed out that students who previously brought gari to school no longer find it necessary, as they are now well-fed under the policy.

“His Excellency Nana Addo, compassionate, visionary and result-oriented Bawumia, they said whether you are rich, whether you are poor, you are a Ghanaian, go to school; everything is free.

"All you do is get your chop box, the gari is not even compulsory because you are being fed three hot meals a day.

“So, if you go you don’t need gari. I have children, not necessarily personal or biological children in Free Senior High, they take gari and return the gari home,” she stated.

Wiredu contrasted the NPP's performance with that of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), asserting that the NDC's history of poor governance disqualifies them from reclaiming power.

She reiterated the NPP's stance that the NDC's call for a review of the Free Senior High School policy signals their intention to abolish the policy if they come into power.
