Massa, let me be brutally frank here: We are big-hypocrites in Ghana. The question we ought ponder over is: To save the gargantuan sums expended on them, to enable them run smoothly, what is the most sensible step to take, about the future of second-cycle schools - at a time when we all face such serious risks from a ruthless global pandemic?
Massa, in my humble view, what a sensible and aspirational African people, like Ghanaians, ought to do, in the COVID-19-era, is simply to commit to transforming all public sector boarding senior high schools, nationwide, into world-class day educational institutions. Simple. We will save zillions that way - and use that to improve the quality of teaching and learning in schools across Ghana. Hmmm, eyeasem ooooo...
Furthermore, to ensure that world-class education - from kindergarten to tertiary level - is always available to the children and wards of all Ghanaian families, till the very end of time, we must act quickly, now, to link free eduction, to the payment of taxes. Case closed. Haaba.
To widen present-day nsny-holed-tax-dragnet, taxes must be set at rates, which will put Ghana on the map, as the nation with the lowest tax rates, in the whole world - bar the Principality of Monaco: where citizens don't pay any taxes. Low taxes make citizens feel that the payment of taxes, are a moral obligation, they must fulfil, as their contribution to the nation--building task.
Finally, if we do not want free education to collapse, under its own weighted-indebtness, then we must end the continuing-idiocy, of not transforming all public-sector senior high schools, into world-class day schools, nationwide, immediately. Now. Not tomorrow. Full stop. Hmmm, Oman Ghana eyeasem ooooo - enti yewieye paaaa, enei? Asem kesie, bi, ebeba debi, ankasa, ooooo. Yooooooo...
