\n
The National Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate, John Dramani Mahama, has criticized the New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, over his recent promise to create jobs for the youth, pointing to the government\u2019s unfulfilled job creation commitments.<\/p>\n
Mahama\u2019s remarks come in response to Dr. Bawumia\u2019s pledge to prioritize youth employment if elected in the December 7 presidential election.<\/p>\n
Speaking to a crowd in Kwamikrom in the Biakoye constituency during his Oti Regional tour, Mahama questioned the credibility of Dr Bawumia\u2019s promise, citing the struggles faced by former Nation Builders Corps (NABCO) trainees who are still owed several months of unpaid allowances.<\/p>\n
He urged Dr Bawumia to first address the outstanding NABCO debts, emphasizing that fulfilling current obligations to the youth would strengthen his promise of job creation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe governing NPP promised to provide jobs for the NABCO trainees after completion. It has been over three years and that has not happened. The allowances they also promised them during the training have not been paid.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is really sad because all attempts by the trainees to have their concerns addressed have been unsuccessful. If indeed Dr. Bawumia is committed to providing jobs for the youth, he should first address their concerns.\u201d<\/p>\n
