Vice President and NPP flagbearer for the December 2024 elections, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has promised to create an enabling environment for the private sector to lead job creation efforts if given the nod.
He argues that empowering youth through job creation is crucial for economic growth, emphasizing the importance of supporting and creating a conducive environment for them to thrive.
Addressing a rally of youth during a campaign stop in the Eastern region in Koforidua, Dr. Bawumia also stressed the need to build confidence among entrepreneurs and the private sector.
“Ghana needs a leader to address issues affecting the youth, such as unemployment, improving quality of life, increasing access to education, reducing internet data costs, raising life expectancy, and creating opportunities for all regardless of socio-economic background,” Dr. Bawumia is quoted by graphic.com.gh.
“I am a problem solver and forward-thinking leader with innovative ideas to tackle these challenges, including reducing youth unemployment, increasing life expectancy, and creating opportunities for everyone. My track record as Vice-President speaks for itself,” he added.
On December 7, 2024, Ghanaians will vote for a new president to navigate the country through an ongoing economic crisis.
