He made this bold claim when speaking
at Sienchem in the Asutifi South Constituency as he recounted how he brought
about the now highly acclaimed Free Senior High School (SHS) policy.
Mr Mahama told the gathering present
that he started the Free SHS programme, claiming it was meant for day students.
“Free SHS is good. If anyone stands
anywhere and says that I, John Mahama, will cancel Free SHS tell the person he
or she is a liar,” adding, “I haven’t said anywhere that when we come to power
we are going to cancel the policy. We started it with day students and we were
going to expand it when, unfortunately, we left office,” he said.
