In an interview on TV3, Kalybos shared, “My aim in supporting the New Patriotic Party was because of their Free SHS policy. Since the policy was implemented, it has allowed me to save money. That was my perspective. I didn’t engage in any other campaign, so when the Free SHS policy was implemented, I had to prioritize my own interests.”
According to Kalybos, the Free SHS policy has alleviated a significant burden from his shoulders and has had a positive impact on many households. He elaborated, “When you become the breadwinner, there are numerous responsibilities.
