“This is why the Party is introducing the 24 Hour Economy policy, which will focus on the “1-3-3” formula to wit, one job, three people, three shifts,” he said.
Former President Mahama, during interaction with the Muslim community in Hohoe as part of his campaign tour to the Volta Region, said although some companies operated 24 hours, there was no policy to give empower them with incentives to operate to provide more jobs for the citizens.
He said the next NDC government would complete the Eastern Corridor Road, which began under the tenure of the late Professor John Evans Atta Mills, and continued under the Mahama administration but was left uncompleted under the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Mr. Mahama said he would upgrade the Hohoe Adabraka Clinic into a polyclinic, while completing construction works on the Fodome Campus of the University of Health and Allied Sciences (UHAS) and supply the necessary infrastructure it deserved to improve quality education.
He urged the electorate to vote massively for him and Mr Thomas Worlanyo Tsekpo, the Hohoe Parliamentary Candidate, and advised them not to deny their development by voting for a different Member of Parliament.
Mr Tsekpo, on his part, said the Party had always cherished the Zongo Community in the constituency.
As a candidate, he said he had not neglected the community in providing social amenities such as boreholes.
He said the constituency would benefit from an Islamic senior high school and appealed to the electorate to massively vote for the NDC.
Mr Newton Darkey, the Hohoe Constituency Chairman of the NDC, said Hohoe was resolute and united with one voice and believed the structures and work being done would enable them to reclaim the parliamentary seat.
Mr Adam Rafui, Assemblyman of Gbi-Bla, in a speech on behalf of the leadership of the Hohoe Zongo Community, noted that the community had been neglected in health and education needs and appealed for the upgrade of the Hohoe Adabraka clinic and establishment of an Islamic Senior High School.
At Gbi Wegbe, Mr. Mahama reiterated his policies that would improve lives of citizens through job creation when voted into power.
The next NDC government would investigate deaths of some youth of the Wegbe and Alavanyo enclave and the appropriate compensation would be given to bereaved families, he said.
The Party would create a pool of farming inputs that would enable farmers in the constituency to increase their yields.
