NPP demands apology or dismissal of Education Minister over Arabic, Chinese language policy
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has called on President John Dramani Mahama to either apologise to Ghanaians or dismiss Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu over the controversy surrounding the introduction of Arabic and Chinese into Ghana’s school curriculum.
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has demanded either an apology from President John Dramani Mahama or the dismissal of Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu over the introduction of Arabic and Chinese into Ghana’s school curriculum. The NPP argues that Mahama's denial of the policy contradicts the actions taken by Iddrisu and the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NaCCA).
The party believes that Iddrisu's announcement and the subsequent development of the curriculum, as well as the training of teachers, imply official government approval, which conflicts with Mahama's denial. The NPP also raises concerns about public expenditure on the curriculum development.
