The presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) John Dramani Mahama has mocked the NPP flagbearer and vice president of Ghana Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia over the NPP government’s inability to pay NABCO trainees their allowance.
John Mahama noted that in 2018 Nana Addo and Bawumia called Ghanaian youths to Independence Square and promised them jobs after they completed the NABCO program but today majority of them are back in their homes.
Speaking on a campaign platform John Mahama mocked Dr. Bawumia, saying, “How much is the NABCO allowance, 700 cedis, 700 cedis a month, even that there are arrears, and you cannot pay, now you are telling Ghanaian youths that when you come you are going to create jobs for them, Nndada nkwaw”.
John Mahama added, “If it is true that your heart desires to create jobs for the youths, if you want to tell Ghanaians it is true, the NABCO trainees pay them their allowance, so we know it is true that you want to create jobs for the youths when you come into the office”.
He reiterated telling Journalists to inform Bawumia that if he wanted Ghanaians to know he was telling the truth he should pay NABCO trainees their allowance arrears.
