Ghanaians are having the feels about Rihanna’s comments concerning their president.

Ghana’s president gave an inspiring speech at the recently held International Education Summit in Dakar, Senegal.

“We cannot depend on other people to finance the education on our continent. I am saying that not to turn my back or to be ungrateful to all these important or noble people who have committed themselves to helping, no. But, if we make our policy dependent on other people, when their policy changes, we will suffer. But, if we make the policy for ourselves, then it means that, at all times, we will be in control of our own destiny,” he stated.

At the summit, President Akufo-Addo called on other African presidents to set aside 20% of their own budget to improve education in their own countries.
