In a Facebook post on March 21, 2026, Barker-Vormawor revealed that his perspective on Free SHS was significantly shaped by a conversation with Justice Sai. He acknowledged that while Free SHS may not be perfectly targeted, it remains one of the few meaningful interventions for low-income households. He stressed that Free SHS and free Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) are now entrenched policies that must be preserved. He further alleged that funds lost through corruption under the previous administration exceed the total cost of the Free SHS programme. Protect Free SHS,” he urged.
