The 24 Hour Economy Proposed by Mahama; NPP's Headache

The much talk-about proposed policy initiative, the 24 hour economy is the order of the day, and it looks as if is a headache for the rulling New Patriotic party and governemnt. The rank and file of the party wakes up every blessed day to propagate about the policy. The Presidential Candidate and Flagbearer who happens to be the Second Gentleman, H.E Dr. Mahamoud Bawumia of this country has been in oppostion to this initiative. Ministers of State, Members of Parliament for the rulling NPP, Ambassadors, High Commissioners had also spoken in negation to the 24 hour Ecomomy. Scores of party executives and members of the rulling party and government had portrayed same with the fear of losing to the opposition National Democratic Congress, the NDC. With few of thier Members, particularly, Honourable Ekow Asafua admitting that if the NDC is able to communicate the policy well to Ghanaians they will purchase or buy into that idea. The 24 Hour Economy, if implemented, when the the NDC assumes power and takes the reigns of government will be the super social intervention ever implemented by any government in the history of Ghana, especially the 4th Republic Democratic dispensation. The NDC had introduced policy interventions projects like the GETFUND, establishment of Tertiary institutions, i e. universities ( UHAS Mines, Sustainable Development) Day Community Senior High Schools, numerous road networks and railways, Potable drinking water and hospitals, and topmost was the Progressively Free senior High School Education which served as the pilot project for the Free Senior High School. The 24 Hour Economy is a social intervention program that would allow institutions, public and private institutions, industries, commercial, transport, manufacturing, extraction industries and financial services and other sectors to operate within 24 hours. It incorporates 8 hour shifts 3 times a day. Presuming to be 24/7. It is going to incorporate sectors that provide sevices 24/7 such as the health sector and filling stations. However, It is going to be grounded on subscriptions, so companies that intends to operate within the 24 hour economy needs to suscribe to it in order to enjoy its benefits of tax exemptions , security, reduced tariffs, and safety measures that accompany it. Without much, the policy has become the talk of the day, and dear to the heart of the Flagbearer of the NDC, John Dramani Mahama who is the brain behind that proposed Social intervetion and safety net. The policy is intended to provide and secure job for the 30 million plus Ghanains to be gainfully employed, the young or youth and aged, male and female. Thanks to the Presidential Candidate and former President, His Excellency John Dramani Mahama and the entire leadership and membership for lauching the 24 hour economy, a job hub for the entire populace, and bringing to bear thier rich experience and expertice to reduce if not eliminate unemployment situations or conditions that bedevil the country and to improve the standard of living of Ghanaians.

Stephanie Naadu's 100 Days In Office Is A Failure

Ag. University of Ghana Students' Representative Council Presid8ent, Stephanie Naadu's appointment is more of a ceremonial orientation than an administrative orientation. She was elected by the student populace as a general secretary to take records of the UGSRC and write minutes among other things. However, owing to the impasse between the two substantive UGSRC presidential candidates at the Court of Appeal, she was appointed by the school management to spearhead, supervise and steer the affairs of students within the Union Building. It is quite unfortunate for the declared winner and plaintiff, Prince Asumadu who sought redress at the Accra High Court to be sworn in as the duly elected president, which went in his favour. The respondent, the previous Chief Justice had sought for appeal at the Court of Appeal to overturn the ruling of the high court to install Samuel Amos Ofosu as the validly elected president. Stephanie Naadu has been fortunate and she needs to take advantage...

Appoint Secretaries To Comittees And Recruit Members Of The Committees To Allow Them To Operate

The President of the UGSRC should as a matter of concern appoint secretaries to the various commitees to permit them to work and function effectively and efficiently. There has been a decline in the coefficiency of the committees owing to the outstanding appointment of secretaries to the standing and adhoc committees of the UGSRC to aid in the drafting, planning, and writing of minutes, and taking records of the commitees. After frantic and dramatic swift of the assignment of Committee heads, no single person has been appointed to serve as a member on any of the substantive committee which leaves much to be questioned. The engagements of committee heads did not necessarily mean a committee had been established. The non existence of committees is worrying, disturbing and unwararranting. The President in Consultation with the Vice President and the General Secretary should masterbate and charge themselves with the appoint of the secretaries, and so direct the appropriate quarters to r...

Diana Ohene Berma storming in with a music Box playing Diana ooo Diana ooo who sat for barely 10 mins less than her contenders.

The presidential race saw Noah and Ambrose being first on the list,then Lincoln and Boakye,followed by Ackom and Ramzy, proceded by Curtis and Linda, and ended with Graham and Paa Kwesi.
