Flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, says 2.1 million jobs have been created under the Akufo-Addo administration between 2017 and 2022, despite global economic challenges.
The Vice President speaking in an address at the UPSA auditorium in Accra, noted “What is probably the most remarkable development in terms of the economy is that our government has created 2.1 million jobs between 2017 and 2022 notwithstanding the global economic crisis."
"The public sector recruited 1.2 million people... We recruited 100,000 more health workers, 100,000 more teachers, more than doubled the fire service personnel...Our government has quite clearly created more jobs in a seven-year period than any government. This is truly remarkable under the circumstances even though we still have to create more jobs,” he emphasized.
