Leader and founder of Movement for Change, Alan Kyerematen has claimed to be the right man to lead Ghana in 2024 looking at his record in creating jobs.
According to the former Trade minister, his tenure saw the creation of the one district one factory (1D1F) initiative under which government provided young men and women with capital to start businesses.
“Before I left government, I introduced what was called enable youth under 1D1F and what I did was that, I put together groups of young people in various communities and government helps them to set up companies, a limited liability company and then government provided seed money for them to acquire equipment and also provided working capital”.
He further noted that government also provided management services companies to become a management team for these companies. And with that we have been able to establish 58 medium scale agro processing youth companies owned 1D1F companies.
Mr. Kyerematen in an interview on Accra based CitiFM also mentioned that in terms of creating jobs, you need a formula and he is the best man to lead the country.
He is therefore urging the youth and Ghanaians in general to vote him into power come December 2024 to continue such an initiative.
“If we continue such an initiative it will provide thousands of youth jobs and opportunities to build a better future as business owners”, he emphasized.
Alan Kyerematen who resigned from the New Patriotic Party (NPP) after losing the Presidential primaries is seeking to win the 2024 general election as an independent candidate and end the NPP/NDC duopoly.
