The National Food Suppliers Association is appealing to President Akufo-Addo to intervene in the management of the Free Senior High School (SHS) and save it from failing.
This spokesperson of the Association, Kwaku Amedenu, said although his outfit plays a crucial role in ensuring the success of the project, they have not been paid for 18 months.
According to him, this can derail the project as most of the suppliers were in debt and therefore might be unable to supply commodities to the schools when they resume.
“We want to appeal to the Minister of Education, we appeal to the President, Akufo-Addo, it is a policy that he cherishes so much. It is a policy that he goes out to pride himself of, that he has brought to the people of Ghana. Let the free SHS be a blessing to the people of Ghana.
“Don’t let free SHS rather collapse the businesses of the suppliers to the disadvantage of the sustainability of the free SHS policy,” he said.
