Prof. Jane Naana did not Cancel Teacher Trainees allowance, it was a Cabinet Decision – Sammy Gyamfi

H.E the former President of the Republic of Ghana and the flagbearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress John Dramani Mahama has finally named Prof. Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang as his running mate ahead of this year’s December 7th 2020 general election.

As usual, after the announcement of the Professor as the running mate to John Mahama, the opposition New Patriotic Party have been making the argument against Prof. Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang that she doesn’t have teachers at heart as she was the Minister of Education when the teacher and nurses trainees allowances were abolished.

However, the National Communications Officer of the opposition National Democratic Congress lawyer Sammy Gyamfi has been making the argument for the Professor.

According to Sammy Gyamfi, the decision to cancel the Teacher Trainees allowances was a cabinet decision but not a decision that was taken solely by Prof. Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang as the Minister for Education.
