The Presidential Candidate of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Mahama, promised to implement a plan to turn Ghana into a 24-hour economy should he be re-elected into office.
He emphasised that the initiative would provide tax incentives and other advantages to businesses that voluntarily participate in the programme. According to him, the overarching goal is to generate additional employment opportunities for the people of Ghana.
This has drawn varied reactions from the general public. Today on The Probe, the host, Emefa Apawu, speaks to the NDC’s Communications Officer Sammy Gyamfi on the issue.
