Ghana Education News has sighted a video in which SHS students complain and cry that they are tired of the Gari Jollof they are constantly served in school.
The unidentified students complained via a video that is trending on social media about the Gari Jollof they are served nearly every time under the Free Feeding Programme at the SHS level.
Gari Jollof Free SHS Students Comments In Trending Video
According to the students, they are tired of the poor quality food they are being fed with and called for the school to break so that they go home.
They spoke Pidgin English saying “Nana, see what we they chop, this thing ibi food? Gari Jollof ibi food? We they do Homowo festival? See, see, what this gari go do? Break us make we go ooo… I beg you we they suffer.
The students via the video called on the President to take a look at the junk food they are served, Gari Jollof.
They further called for a break for them to go home since the food they are being served was not good enough.
However, in a related development, visits by the Minister of Education and his Deputy to some schools indicated that there was no shortage of food and everything was normal.
The video posted by Dr. Clement Abas Apaak @DrApaak has this inscription
“SHS food – Govt says all is well, yet schools have no food/have one type of food item. Headmasters can’t talk due to culture of silence.
I don’t condone the language of the students in the attached clip, but they have every right to complain. Why gari every day, gari/Jollof paaaah!”
This video may not be enough to contradict information out there from the government and the Ministry of Education however, it paints a rare picture of what might be happening in most published senior high schools at the blind side of the Ministry of Education and the Ghana Education Service.
