| Former President Jerry John Rawlings |
Former President Jerry John Rawlings has described the
educational system in Ghana as lacking substance and essence.
He said at a time when the country was inundated with
so many universities the quality of education has dwindled churning out
superficial graduates every year.
Mr Rawlings said although the educational system in
the country had transformed over the years the standard had fallen with
graduates becoming a liability to the economy.
This he explained was due to the fact that students
lack the political will to utilise and implement what they learn in school.
Speaking at a meeting with Cuba trained Ghanaian
professionals who paid a courtesy call on him at his office in Accra on
Tuesday, Mr Rawlings said Cuba was a shining example when it comes to education
especially in their efforts at training medical doctors and other professionals
throughout the world.
