Minister for Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, has announced that nearly 15,000 first-year students enrolled in public tertiary institutions have received financial support under the newly introduced ‘No Fees Stress Policy”.
In a post shared on his official X page on Thursday, July 3, 2025, the Minister stated, “About 15,000 students have received disbursements under the policy. Remaining students will receive payments shortly after verification. President Mahama will officially launch the policy tomorrow at Koforidua.”
The initiative, a flagship campaign promise by President John Dramani Mahama in the 2024 elections, aims to ease the financial burden on tertiary students and enhance access to higher education across the country.
The policy is expected to benefit tens of thousands more in its initial phase and beyond.
President Mahama is scheduled to officially launch the policy on Friday, July 4, 2025, in Koforidua.
