The Managing Editor of the new Crusading Guide newspaper, Kwaku Baako has said President Mahama’s inability to present Ghanaians with evidence-based facts on the 123 Senior High schools cited in his State of the Nation Address cast doubts in the progress said to have been made on the project.
General Secretary of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketiah has attacked Flagbearer of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on his reference to the 123 community Day SHS which he[Nana Addo] commented as not having been delivered by government.
Asiedu Nketiah said for Nana Addo to conclude that the 4 schools that have been commissioned are the only ones which have been built at the moment is a reflection of poor reasoning.
But Kwaku Baako has taken a swipe at Mahama’s failure to give a vivid account of the project quiet apart from what his communicators have been saying on the project for the past years.
For him, the evidence-based analysis in his State of the Nation Address was likewise critical in the case of the 123 schools which government claimed had reached various stages of completion.
Speaking on Joy FM’s News File programme Saturday, Baako said Mahama’s information captured on the project is only a repetition of what the NDC government communicators had been given for the past eight months.
“The 123 schools at various stages of completions we don’t know where they are.It is incumbent on government to tell us the status of the 123. You’ve been repeating 123 at various stages of completion; on an important occasion like the State of the Nation Address and with the introduction of the evidence-based elements, then I’m suggesting that something of evidential value ought to have been added to it” he insisted.
