Former President John Dramani Mahama has promised National Democratic Congress (NDC) women and youth juicy contracts and jobs ahead of the party’s presidential primaries on May 13, 2023.
He pledged that a future NDC government under his presidency will reward all the women organizers of the party, especially those who will be able to meet the target set for them in the presidential primaries and in the 2024 general election.
Former President Mahama specifically promised to reward the NDC women with contracts under the National School Feeding programme to cook for the school children.
Speaking to NDC delegates in Nanton constituency of the Northern Region as part of his campaign to be elected flagbearer of the party for the 2024 polls, the former President also assured the youth of the party that they are going to benefit from recruitment into the Police Service, Ghana Armed Forces, and the Ghana Immigration Service.
“We are also going to reward you and so any branch that gets the target votes that we are going to give, all the nine-member executives, we are going to give you a very handsome reward so that we can work hard.
“Whatever we are going to do for Ghanaians you will also get your fair share. So if we are going to recruit young people to go into the Armed Forces, into the Police, Immigration, Prison Service and Fire Service, we will come and take you our young people and you also go and work in those services.
“If we are hiring school feeding caterers, our women organizers too know how to cook, we will come and take our women organisers and you also go and cook for the primary school children and make some money for yourselves and so you are going to get your fair share of everything the country has to offer.”
