Speaking exclusively to Ngamegbulam Chidozie Stephen of Apexnewsgh.com, the Bunkprugu legislator said: “The NABCO programme was only introduced by the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) as a tool for political profiteering.
According to him, “…because the government wanted to use the youth to get into power and we in the NDC foresaw this and we warn the youth of this country that is a trap and is not going to help anything because we could see that its introduction, they were only interested in people who were aligned into the NPP. We saw people who they perceived to be NDC were taken out, they never received salary and we said No, this is not right, these are Ghanaians. So, if such a policy is been rollout, ensure that it favors everybody. But that wasn’t what we saw. So we warned them and the majority of them were before the 2020 election flying and shouting 4 more 4 Nana because there was NABCO but we knew it will not work and this is the result of it, that after they have won power now they cannot pay them, the economy is in shambled and they are now suffering and that is why they are embarking on demonstrations”.
He said: “We from the NDC’s side, we recognized that the youth who are the future of this country has lots to offer and therefore, we will come out with sound policies that will be in our manifesto that they will see that it is workable, implementable and sustainable for them when we come to power.
However, asking whether NABCO beneficiaries will be given a permanent job if NDC won power, Mr, Abed-Nego said ‘yes’.
Explaining further the MP said: “We from the NDC side have the ability to create jobs and we have done that before. If you look at the inflationary rates, the employment rate before John Mahama handed over, it is now on the high side especially when they came out with all these measures, and yet it didn’t work out. So, we from the NDC will have a policy that will absorb our youth into permanent employment to ensure that everybody in Ghana is happy, we have done it before under Jerry Rawlings, Atta Mills and John Mahama so we have a track record.
