Speaking as part of the ‘Building Ghana Tour’, John Mahama, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), addressed the issue of increased market premiums as a response to the economic downturn.
He highlighted that various labor unions have called for enhanced remuneration if the NDC is successful in the 2024 election, and some have even resorted to strikes to emphasize their demands.
John Mahama stressed that the persistent calls for increased allowances and remuneration are a direct consequence of the economic hardship faced by the working class.
He expressed his belief that the NDC has the necessary expertise and capability to address the economic challenges and restore stability to the economy.
John Mahama outlined the NDC’s commitment to actively engage with labor unions and stakeholders to find a way forward and restore economic prosperity if elected as President in 2024.
Furthermore, he cautioned the electorate to be wary of gifts and inducements from politicians, urging them to vote against such individuals.
He urged voters to consider the economic hardships faced by the country and use their vote to effect change in the government.
