Speaking in an interview on Kumasi-based Otec FM’s morning show, Dr. Stephen said as mynewsgh was covering

“Children whose parents honour their tax obligation to the government must be allowed to enjoy free education”

According to the planner, if this becomes the modality before children will benefit from the flagship policy, parents and guardians will pay their taxes to enable the government also raise revenue to finance the collapsing policy.

“By this parents will ensure that they do what is right so their children benefit”, Dr. Stephen Takyi pointed out to host, Agya Wusu Ansah during panel discussion.
