Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has touted the impact of government’s Free Senior High School (Free SHS) programme on the lives of families amid an economic crunch. According to him, the programme has “lessened the burden on families” as the country experiences one of its worst economic meltdown. He said despite the economic crunch, the government continues to implement the Free SHS programme which has ultimately brought respite to families. “So we hope that sooner or later, the Ukraine crisis will abate and bring down energy prices for all of us. The government implemented the Free SHS programme in 2017 to eradicate financial barriers in accessing second cycle level education.
