In an interview with Woezor TV last week, the 2020 Vice Presidential Candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) said the 2020 West African Senior Schools Certificate Examinations (WASSCE) was characterized by widespread cheating and there was no justification for Ghanaians to celebrate the passes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe have also heard and seen students who wrote an exam, came out and it was like, you know we had an earthquake in this country, it wasn\u2019t like one school or two schools. . .this same group\u2019s performance is supposed to be outstanding that we shouldn\u2019t be talking, it is the group I am referring to and they went and wrote the exams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe heard of the leakage of the exams, we heard of invigilators being compromised, we heard many things and we also saw the students come out and speak about \u2018no this is not what we were told will happen\u2019. Now these students have As and we are happy? It is up to us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But speaking on Accra-based Peace FM on Monday, June 7, Dr. Yaw Adutwum lamented politics appears to have blinded a lot of people so much that good policies are criticized without justification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cFor me if NDC do good, I will not shy away from saying it,\u201d the Bosomtwe Member of Parliament said in Twi, \u201cand what I am also doing must be trumpeted. It is left for Ghanaians to judge.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On that score, the Minister praised some of the E-blocks initiated by the Mahama administration, citing the Kwabenya Community Day Senior High School as one that has been helpful to the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dr. Adutwum said Prof Opoku-Agyemang was wrong to water down the performance of the students and it is even an affront to their teachers, who worked hard to achieve those feats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
