Flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress, John Dramani Mahama has debunked claims that he is a liar and his intent to cancel the Free Senior High School policy if elected president on December 7, 2024.
He told the overlord of the Ashanti Kingdom, Otumfuo Osei Tutu that the tag on him was untrue after proving his innocence to the King at the Manhyia Palace.
“So that thing they keep saying, Nana, you know me, you are one of those who nurtured me, and you know I don’t lie. So I stand before you today and affirm that the lies being peddled that we will cancel Free SHS is a lie; there is no iota of truth in that,” he stated.
Mr Mahama further accused the ruling NPP of taking issues of development in the Ashanti Region for granted because of the support the party enjoys in the region and assured the Asantehene of his commitment to developing the region when elected president.
He called for Otumfuo’s blessing while emphasising his assurance to reset the country’s path towards growth and development.
