The Member of Parliament for Damongo, Samuel Abu Jinapor, has criticised the Mahama administration over what he describes as its failure to implement the proposed three-shift, eight-hour system under the government\u2019s 24-hour economy policy, nearly one year into its tenure.<\/p>\n
Mr. Jinapor argued that the policy remains largely unimplemented across state institutions, noting that the Office of the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, is the only arm of government operating a form of shift system\u2014and even that, he said, does not run for a full 24 hours.<\/p>\n
The Damongo MP further contended that the bill is aimed more at creating positions for political allies than addressing youth unemployment.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Speaker, this is another gimmick. This is another deception. It is meant to buy time and give false hope to the unemployed youth. This authority will only create jobs for a few\u2014another CEO, deputy CEOs, and managers. It will not affect the suffering unemployed youth from Bolgatanga to Keta, Bosome Freho, and across the length and breadth of this country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
According to him, Ghanaians are frustrated by what he described as repeated promises without action.<\/p>\n
\u201cGhanaians are tired of hope; they want action. Young men and women in this country cannot find jobs. One year down the line, instead of implementing the 24-hour economy, they are asking us to create another bureaucracy,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
