But why do you make it free for both the banker\u2019s son and the watchman\u2019s son when in fact, you can make the banker\u2019s son (who can afford to pay) pay and then use that money to solve the problems facing that school&#8221; Suhuyini quizzed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The NPP always confuses equalization with equity&#8221;, he added.<\/p>\n<p>MP for Sekondi, Andrew Agyapa Mercer who was also on the show, however, disagreed with the NDC man telling him to \u201cgo and ask the beneficiaries of the trainee allowances and see what the money is doing for them\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He also touted the free SHS policy as a good one and said structures are in place to sustain it just as the president said.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 48 updated by: 48 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Monday, 4 December 2017 Source: Myjoyonline.com 2017-12-04 MP Tamale North, Alhassan Suhuyini, Member of Parliament for Tamale North, Alhassan Suhuyini says the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government\u2019s policies do not pursue equity but rather are propagating instant gratification.
