They are using series of press conferences to educate and inform the youth in the country on the policies and achievements of the Akufo-Addo\/Bawumia NPP administration.<\/p>\n

At the maiden series in Koforidua on Monday, NPP National Youth Organizer Henry Nana Boakye popularly called Nana B listed some achievements of the NPP government since assuming office in 2017, describing the Akufo-Addo\/ Bawumia administration as \u201ccovenant keeping government.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Free SHS policy which was a major campaign promise of the NPP is being delivered with the introduction of the double tract system that has employed over 8,000 teaching and non-teaching staff and also constructed 800 emergency projects to support the increasing number,\u201d Nana B, a lawyer, said.<\/p>\n

Nana B insisted that under the NDC only 69 youth benefitted from their Youth Entrepreneurship Support (YES), but under the Akufo-Addo\/Bawumia administration, Youth in Agric employed 11,500 in 2017, 15,000 in 2018 and 33,000 to be engaged, adding \u201cthe National Builders Corps (NABCO) has also employed 100,000 young graduates.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said Youth Employment Agency (YEA) has engaged 107,000 youth in various modules in 2018 and 125,000 in 2019, adding that currently, there are 700 monitoring and evaluation officers, 15,000 community police, 3,500 youth in sports, 45,000 youth in sanitation, 100 graduates at Ghana Post.<\/p>\n

He added that there are 10,000 beneficiaries of the youth in Afforestation, 3,000 Arabic teachers employed, 54,000 nurses across the country, 16,400 Diploma in Basic Education have been posted and for the first time 2,450 privately trained teachers from private colleges of education in 2017 and 19,000 in 2018, 45,000 teachers recruited across the country and 882 Agric Extension Officers employed.<\/p>\n

Nana B also said that there are eight operational companies under the one district one factory initiative that have employed 495 young people, 15,667 health workers recruited in 2018 while the National Board for Small Scale Industry (NBSSI) trained 800 youths in Brong Ahafo in various agricultural value chain and 500 young women under the ongoing cuisine program.<\/p>\n
