The Opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has made a promise to provide tuition-free education for first-year students in public universities.
This policy according to the party is part of a broader set of reforms aimed at making higher education accessible for all, most especially for students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
During the party’s youth manifesto launch in Accra on Monday, 12 August 2024, the flagbearer of the party, John Dramani Mahama highlighted several other key proposals including its “24-hour economy policy,” which aims to stimulate economic activity around the clock, potentially creating more job opportunities and improving productivity.
“We will create an enabling environment for young people to thrive and lay a foundation for prosperous Ghanaians not just a few.
“We will increase access to quality education from the basic and second cycle to tertiary levels as well as affordable healthcare and numerous job creation programmes,” he said.
Additionally, the party proposed the establishment of a Ministry for Youth Development, which the Party’s leader, Mahama says would presumably focus on unlocking the full potential of Ghana’s young people.
