Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, flagbearer of the NPP, says the next NPP government will introduce and implement affordable housing schemes in all the districts across the country.
Addressing the chiefs and people of Drobonso as part of his campaign tour to the Sekyere Afram Plains, he said the introduction of the scheme would not only help to solve the accommodation challenges of Ghanaians, especially government workers, but it would also create employment opportunities for the people.
“Countries like Singapore have done, we are going to do social as well as affordable housing schemes across all the districts/ Municipalities and it is in our manifesto,” Bawumia stated.
He also said his government will implement the ‘Ghana First policy’ to prioritse the use of made in Ghana products, especially in all government projects and purchases.
“I am also going to introduce buy Ghana first policy, today when government is purchasing items, we import them from outside and that does not bring job opportunities in the country.
If you want to buy school uniforms do not go and import them from outside and so this is the policy I am introducing and I know it will bring a lot of jobs into the country.”
Dr Bawumia, who is also the Vice President of Ghana, called on the people of Drobonso to vote for him to help translate his vision into reality to provide massive development of infrastructure and implementation of social intervention programmes across the country.
