President Nana Akufo-Addo<\/strong><\/p>\n

PRESIDENT NANA Addo
\nDankwa Akufo-Addo has stated that he is always on the road working, for which
\nreason he is aware of the current happenings in the country and, therefore,
\ncannot be an armchair President.<\/p>\n

He particularly
\nstated that he was abreast of the famous Free Senior High School (Free SHS)
\npolicy and the wonders that it is making in the lives of beneficiaries.<\/p>\n

According to him, he
\nis equally aware that as a result of the introduction of the Free SHS
\nprogramme, the infrastructural base of the schools was also being improved.<\/p>\n

He said the
\nnaysayers, who had continually opposed the introduction of the programme, often
\ncited lack of infrastructure to criticize it.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet these people know
\nthat my government is vigorously confronting the infrastructural problems in
\nthe various schools to make students feel comfortable.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe schools are
\nbenefitting from projects such as dormitories, classroom blocks, science
\nlaboratories, dining halls and several others as I speak with you.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am not an armchair
\nleader; I am always on the road as the President and I see how infrastructure
\nin the schools is being tackled,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The occasion was when
\nthe President briefed some selected journalists about how his administration is
\nfaring during a programme at Jubilee House in Accra.<\/p>\n

Very soon, he said,
\nmost of the infrastructural needs of the schools would be met, stressing that
\nthe Free SHS policy is good so the programme had come to stay.<\/p>\n

The President was of the view that the country\u2019s future growth depended on its quality human resource base, hence the need to invest in properly educating the youth.<\/p>\n
