How Trecia from Kwame Nkrumah SHS’s Bold Statement Led to a Reward
Trecia, a student at Kwame Nkrumah SHS (Senior High School), recently received GH¢1,000 from an individual impressed by her eloquence and opinion on the Free Senior High School (Free SHS) policy introduced by the government in 2017.
This act of support highlights how her views on education resonated with many.
The generous donor, Abubakar Saddick, sent the money through Gosh after watching a viral TikTok video where Trecia shared her thoughts on free education. Gosh, who relayed the gift, praised Trecia for her honest and thoughtful commentary. In the video, Trecia expressed gratitude to Saddick for his unexpected generosity.
Trecia’s story isn’t unique. Richlove Oduro, another student, also received money after sharing her views on the National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ).
In fact, her remarks attracted several admirers, with some even visiting her school to express their appreciation.
These instances reflect a growing trend where students’ voices on key national topics, such as education, gain recognition and support, especially on social media platforms like TikTok. Trecia’s opinion on the Free SHS policy, in particular, highlights the impact that the policy has on students and how public support can play a role in amplifying these important conversations.
Such stories emphasize the power of speaking out and how social media continues to bridge connections between individuals, regardless of background or status.
