Minister of Education Haruna Iddrisu believes the government’s policy to provide free sanitary pads to female students in basic and secondary schools is an end to the indignity young girls endure during their menstrual cycle.

Speaking at the launch of the National Free Sanitary Pads for Girls in School at the Salvation Army Cluster of Schools at Mamprobi in Accra, Mr Iddrisu said the “milestone” was going to avoid situations where female students absent themselves from school on account of lacking sanitary pads.

He credited President John Mahama, who was in attendance, for prioritising the “mental and hygienic health” of women in the country.

Mr Iddrisu, who described the challenge of lacking sanitary pads as an “ordeal, was confident that the initiative will immensely benefit female students across the country.

“Today’s milestone in my words is to say a terminal end to the unbearable emotional trauma and indignity that young girls go through responding to nature.

“Excellency John Dramani Mahama says from today, you will give a terminal end to that strife and to that struggle so that no girl child in Ghana will abstain herself from school or have her dignity compromised as we watched in the drama because of undergoing this natural biological process,” the minister stressed.

President John Dramani Mahama, during the 2024 campaign, promised to initiate a programme to provide free sanitary pads to girls in basic and senior high schools.

In the 2025 budget presentation, Finance Minister Dr Cassiel Ato Forson announced that GHC292.4 million had been allocated to cater for the social intervention policy.
