And as a result of that, all Ghanaians exporting and importing goods to<br \/>\nand from abroad would pay absolutely nothing like what pertains in Togo.<\/p>\n<p>He said when the country operated a free port, everything imported<br \/>\ninto the country would be very cheap, while citizens of neighbouring countries<br \/>\nwould troop to the country to buy goods and services which would lead to larger<br \/>\nmarkets for Ghanaian goods and services.<\/p>\n<p>He said he would revive all defunct factories established by Dr.<br \/>\nKwame Nkrumah while new ones would be created to provide employment for<br \/>\nGhanaians.<\/p>\n<p>He further indicated that he would build a gold refinery in the<br \/>\ncountry to refine Ghana\u2019s raw gold to add more value to the mineral in order to<br \/>\nearn more foreign exchange.<\/p>\n<p>The founder of the\u00a0 GUM<br \/>\nasserted that he would introduce a new educational system that would be based<br \/>\non practicals and skills training, and it would be completely free at all<br \/>\nlevels to churn out products with skills and ability to work for the progress<br \/>\nof the country.<\/p>\n<p>He promised that when he wins political power, he would run the<br \/>\ncountry with not more than 70 ministers of state, while salaries, allowances<br \/>\nand ex-gratia for ministers, MPs and MMDCEs would be significantly reduced.<\/p>\n<p>He also said he would build a teaching hospital in each of the 16<br \/>\nregions of the country and provide free accommodation as a retirement package<br \/>\nfor members of the security forces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have a lot of resources and money in the country but politicians in government are misusing them and they are only there to serve their own interests and not the interests of suffering Ghanaians,\u201d he said stressing that his new party had been formed to change the status quo for the betterment of Ghanaians. <\/p>\n<p><strong> By Thomas Fosu Jnr<\/strong> <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pastor Kwabena Andrews The General Overseer of the Life Assembly Worship Centre at Odorkor, Christian Kwabena Andrews, has held a press conference to outline the vision of his new political party\u2014 Ghana Union Movement (GUM) \u2014 which will \u00a0participate in the 2020 general elections.
