In the wake of a debt owed to a supplier of maize to senior high schools in the Ashanti Region, political partisanship has become a significant issue. Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum, the Minister of Education, appealed to the Minister of Finance for assistance in settling the debts, which were traced back to the previous administration. The supplier, Rostella Enterprise, had supplied maize to the schools under the Free Senior High School Policy.
Despite assurances that payments could not be repudiated by future governments, the new government initiated a forensic audit into the supplies. The audit concluded in July last year, and the President announced that all outstanding payments would resume. However, the supplier has not been given a contract for supplies since then.
The Ministry of Education, led by Minister Haruna Iddrisu, pointed out that the uncapped portion of the GETFund is being used to pay for food supplies under the Free SHS programme, despite the supplier being owed money. This situation highlights the impact of partisan politics on the provision of essential services and the allocation of government funds.
