John Mahama is a Hindrance to Development Process of the Youth... CVM 


The youth of this Country deserve better and decent jobs with well paid salary than okada business which serves as a means to an end.


Most of the youth who are okada riders are doing it because of lack of available jobs. Most of them too were unable to have access to free SHS due to the incompetence of John Mahama and his NDC Administration. 


The NPP Government is committed to ensuring that every Ghanaian would be employed in a decent working environment with well paid salary that is why since the coming into office, Akufo-Addo led Government has committed a lot of resources to the establishment of one district one factory under Public-Private Partnership.  The successful completion of the one district one factory policy would give an opportunity to Ghanaians including okada riders to work in those established factories. Even if they still want to operate the motorcycle they would be employed in the delivery unit of the factories under 1D1F as *Professional Dispatch Riders* with better income than what they are earning currently. 


Instead of John Mahama thinking outside the box and coming out with an initiative that would create decent and well paid jobs for the youth he is rather doing propaganda with okada riders, even though Mahama's administration was the one which enacted a law to ban okada business in Ghana. 


It is important to point out that, the Akufo-Addo led Government has already started a consultative process and engagement with the okada riders to see how best they can earn a living while waiting for the 1D1F across all the districts in Ghana. As it stands now most okada riders go about their business without any form of intimidation from NPP Government even though Mahama's Government enacted a law to get them arrested. 


The question is, would the okada riders prefer to remain as okada riders forever?  Absolutely not. 

They need  much better jobs than that. 


Most of the  okada riders can take advantage of NPP Government's policies such as Planting for food and Jobs, Rearing for food and jobs, 1D1F, NABCO etc. 


While the NPP Government believes in building a modern society coupled with solid economic development, the NDC on the other hand is bent on sending the Country onto the path of retrogression. 


Most of the youth who are currently working as okada riders would stand a great  chance of working in factories created by Akufo-Addo's Government under 1D1F as *Professional Dispatch Riders* with better salary and condition of service. This concept is far better than Mahama's backward position on okada business.

NPP And NDC Playing "Chaskele" With EC... Rev Dr Worlanyo Mensah

  NPP And NDC Playing "Chaskele"  With EC... Rev Dr Worlanyo Mensah Tensions between Ghana's Electoral Commission (EC), National Democratic Congress (NDC), and New Patriotic Party (NPP) have escalated over alleged discrepancies in the 2024 voter register. Rev Dr Samuel Worlanyo Mensah, vice presidential candidate for the All People's Congress (APC), economist and a lecture at Wisconsin university Accra, has warned that the NDC and NPP's actions during the limited voter registration and special transfer of vote exercise have compromised the register's integrity. "The two major parties were bussing people from their homes to registration centers, encouraging minors and foreigners to register," Dr. Worlanyo alleged. The NDC recently raised concerns upon receiving the provisional voters register, citing bloated electoral rolls in certain polling stations and alleged attempts by the EC to rig the December 7 polls in favor of the governing NPP. In res...

C/R: Assin Oboba Kokorowa Pupils Are Forced To Study In Dilapidated And Death Trap Building

  C/R: Assin Oboba Kokorowa Pupils Are Forced To Study In Dilapidated And Death Trap Building The fate of over 500 pupils at the Assin Obobakokrowa D/A Basic School in the Assin North District of the Central Region hangs in the balance as they learn under dilapidated structures. The the Assin Obobakokrowa D/A Basic School has not seen any major rehabilitation since its establishment in 1970s. Parents and residents in and around the community are appealing for urgent assistance due to the deteriorating condition of their classroom blocks .  The school's infrastructure has become unsafe, forcing pupils to learn under dire circumstances. Parts of the aluminum roofing sheets are rusting away, while their remains hang loosely on the tiny erected concrete pillars. Class sessions end abruptly whenever the clouds gather.  “Our roof is ripping off. And when it rains, it leaks into our classroom, so we have to end classes.  “When it leaks, our books get wet and we are not able...

NPP Government Shortchanges Cocoa Farmers: A Closer Look at the Discrepancies....Twifo Atti-Morkwa NDC Communication Officer.

NPP Government Shortchanges Cocoa Farmers: A Closer Look at the Discrepancies.... Twifo Atti-Morkwa NDC Communication Officer. In recent years, Ghana's cocoa farmers have faced significant disparities in the payments they receive for their hard work. A comparison of current cocoa pricing practices under the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government with those from the era of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) highlights a troubling trend: farmers are being shortchanged, while the government profits disproportionately. As of today, the global market price for cocoa stands at $6,470 per ton. With an exchange rate of Ghc 16.35 to $1, this translates to Ghc 105,784.50 per ton in Ghanaian cedis. Given that one ton comprises 16 bags, this sets the price per bag at Ghc 6,611.00. However, the current government pays cocoa farmers only Ghc 3,000 per ton—just 45.39% of the total price—retaining the remaining 54.61%, or Ghc 3,609.52 per ton. In stark contrast, under the NDC government led by J...
