Deputy Minister for Lands and Natural Resources, George Mireku Duker has questioned John Mahama's intention to introduce a 24-hour economy to help deal with the unemployment situation in the country.
Former President Mahama has reportedly proposed a 24-hour economy, which will see workers engage in a three-shift system
The 24-hour economy which will be one of the key pillars of Mahama's campaign for the 2024 presidential election, would help to boost economic growth and create jobs.
However, Mireku Duker who doubles as the Member of Parliament for Tarkwa Nsuaem contributing to a panel discussion on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo' wondered how the NDC Presidential candidate is going to achieve that when he couldn't handle "a 6-hour" economy.
"24-hour economy; what is it that you plan to do? you couldn't even sustain a 6-hour economy how much more 24 hours; how do you intend to do that? you couldn't even provide chalk for your teachers. We can't just pick up something from the internet and then just bring it up without any foundation because of political expediency," he said.

ASHANTIS MPS TRIBALISM HAS DESTROYED THE ASHANTI REGION. NOW OTUMFUOR IS BEGGING PEOPLE TO DONATE MONEY FOR KATH HOSPITAL WHILE 4 HOSPITALS IN ASHANTI REGION STAYED CLOSE BECAUSE NDC BUILT IT. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ASHANTIS. 7 YEARS IN POWER NOT EVEN ONE DEVELOPMENT OR PROJECTS IN ASHANTI REGION BY NPP GOVERNMENT BUT OTUMFUOR STAYS QUITE AND INSTEAD OF QUESTIONING THE GOVERNMENT TO RENOVATE KUMFO ANOKYE HOSPITAL AFTER COLLECTING MONEY FROM SAME HOSPITAL FOR 7 YEARS OTUMFUOR IS ASKING ASHANTIS TO PAY FOR THE RENOVATION NOT THE GOVERNMENT BECAUSE HIS FRIEND IS NANA ADDO. THE MONEY OTUMFUOR SPENT THIS YEAR ON HIS BIRTHDAY WITH NANA ADDO IN UK CAN RENOVATE THE WHOLE ASHANTI REGION HOSPITALS.
Quophi, you think you're champion in in Ghana. Travel and see, you'll know what is happening in other economies that's positively driving their economy. Visit Beijing; restaurants operate 24 hours service. You can sit in the comfort of your home and even order food at 2.00 am and it would be delivered in less than 15-20 mins. Mireku Duker thinks the idea was just picked from the Internet. I really pity him. If they don't know and they are being schooled, arrogance will not allow them to pay attention and learn. Your so-called economic messiah and his EMT have messed up our economy, and you people have no shame but still have mouth to talk.
Please travel and see. Economy does not sleep afte 5pm, just travel and see
