John Dramani Mahama has caused a huge stir within the political landscape after he criticized meals given to Free SHS students.

Mr Mahama said the meals are terrible and unfit for dogs during his campaign tour in the Central Region. (Free SHS). According to him, these foods makes student sick and uncomfortable due to their poor quality and taste.

“Today, if you go to see the kind of food the children are eating in the schools…you shudder to serve such food to your dogs at home,” he told delegates and party members in the Asikuma Odoben Brakwa Constituency.

Predictably, some Ghanaians especially those aligned with the ruling party took him on social media. In that regard, the PRO for the Ministry of Education, Mr Kwarteng has described the comment as unpresidential.

In a Facebook post, Mr Kwarteng noted “Former President John Dramani Mahama is known for his unpresidential remarks but little did we know he could be such loose, vulgar and low. How do you equate food for human beings to that of dogs? Jesus Christ!

Mr Mahama is not only wrong in demeaning our collective efforts in providing quality education for Ghanaian students but he’s also wrong for reducing the school children to dogs. That’s insulting.

Comments like this are not acceptable. Is backward, retrogressive, negative, and unpresidential.

Somebody whose leadership witnessed the worst educational outcomes ever shouldn’t be making such comments. He should apologize to Ghanaian Children!”.
