According to media personality Bridget Otoo, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo‘s Free Senior High School (SHS) policy is doing more harm to the educational system in the various SHS across the nation.
She added that because of the poor implementation, the students that the various SHS under the free policy turn out are not academically prepared, and that the policy has not produced the expected results in terms of the quality of education in the nation.
In a post on X, the celebrity said, “Free SHS is producing more illiterates. Sadly.”

Her response follows significant pressure on parents of first-year SHS students to get every item on the prospectus in order for their kids to be able to go to school.
Former National Democratic Congress (NDC) deputy general secretary Peter Otokunor had earlier claimed that teenage pregnancies are being brought on by the Free SHS policy.
He claims that the free SHS program has led to a rise in teenage pregnancies and that the government’s double track, which was implemented in the SHS, is the reason the NPP government is ruining the educational system.
In order to prevent Catholic priests from allegedly being “pedophilic, sodomizing young boys at the alter, raping women and having multiple children all over,” media personality Bridget Otoo has proposed that priests be castrated.
She claims that the Roman Catholic Church is fully aware of the accusations made against Catholic priests, but has been “covering it.”
Some internet users took offense at her suggestion that Catholic priests be permitted to get married in order to reduce the number of alleged sexual assaults committed by them.
“Can we Catholics also copy others and let our priests marry instead of the immoral lives they are living? Having children, some raping women and sodomizing innocent boys at the altar? That’s not Christlike,” Bridget Otoo wrote on X.
