The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has criticized the Akufo-Addo administration for the rising rate of youth unemployment in the country.
Today, the NDC said, the economy lies in tatters having been plunged into an unsustainable public debt through ‘reckless’ spending and excessive borrowing most of which have been spent on consumption by the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia government.
“Unemployment rate continues to rise and currently stands at 13.4%, the highest in nearly thirty years, despite championing lofty and grandiose rhetorics such as NABCO, YouStart, One District, One Factory, among others,” a statement issued by the National Communications Officer Sammy Gyamfi in response to an allegation by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) that the NDC orchestrated the heckling of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo at the Global Citizens Festival on Saturday, September 24, said.
The Akufo-Addo-led government has been chastised by many Ghanaians nowadays for the current economic hardship the country is currently experiencing.
