Mahama promises to give start-up support to artisans
Flag bearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Mahama has stated his next administration will support artisans with funds and start-up equipment.
In a social media post, the NDC flag bearer also mentioned his readiness to prioritize technical and vocational education.
“Another reason why my government will prioritize technical and vocational education, implement a scheme to support master craftsmen and women to train apprentices and support artisans with funds and start-up equipment,” the former President stated.
Below is the full statement on Mahama’s Facebook wall
I had an incredibly exciting experience on my way to Wa earlier today. Between Sawla and Wa, I made a few whistle-stops to interact with some passionate, hardworking artisans in the local communities.
Their unwavering support and tireless dedication to their craft are not only awe-inspiring but even more the “appropriate technology” being used to serve their clients.
Another reason why my government will prioritize technical and vocational education, implement a scheme to support master craftsmen and women to train apprentices and support artisans with funds and start-up equipment.
The enthusiasm and zeal for change in the country’s political leadership were evident. This only solidified my commitment to implementing meaningful and transformative policies that will uplift the lives of every Ghanaian.
Their energy and passion give me a renewed sense of purpose and drive, and I am more determined than ever to lead this country to greater heights.
Together, we will build the Ghana we want and move on to progress and prosperity!
