Comic actor Richard Kweku Asante has revealed how Ghana's Free Senior High School policy changed his life. The popular entertainer known as Kalybos says the government program saved him serious cash. He used to spend huge amounts paying school fees for relatives and people from his community. The financial burden left him broke every year after September when school bills arrived.
Kalybos told JoyFM's Showbiz A-Z that he could barely afford basic needs after covering education costs. The actor struggled to find money for provisions and other school expenses. He searched desperately for ways to solve his money problems each academic year. The Free SHS policy arrived just when he needed relief from these crushing expenses.
The financial freedom allowed Kalybos to pursue personal projects he had dreamed about for years. He finally had spare money to invest back into his career and other ventures. The policy gave him breathing room to plan for his future without constant worry about school fees. His relatives and community members also benefited from the government program.
Kalybos decided to campaign for the New Patriotic Party during the 2024 elections because of this policy. He rejected claims that he supported the party for personal gain or favors. The actor insisted he never received any benefits from his political involvement. He believes the Free SHS program helps ordinary Ghanaian families escape poverty. Kalybos says he always supports causes that benefit regular people across the country.
