NDC committed to empowering women financially – Prof. Opoku-Agyemang

Professor Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang, the Running Mate for NDC flag bearer John Mahama has assured Ghanaian women of the party’s commitment to creating jobs for them when they win the 2024 elections in December.

Just like other social interventions the NDC implemented under the Mills-Mahama administration that supported women financially to create small and medium scale (SME) businesses, the former Education Minister believes there would be similar ones when Ghanaians vote against the NPP and give the NDC  the nod to steer the affairs of the country.

Professor Opoku-Agyemang who is on a tour of the Western Region to interact with Chiefs, women groups and opinion leaders has been specific about the policies that will better the lives of  Ghanaians and reduce the hardship the people grapple with on daily basis under the Akufo-Addo government.

One of the key policies which she said would benefit women immensely across the country is the Women’s Development Bank.

“I told the women about NDC presidential candidate John Dramani Mahama’s strong commitment to empowering women financially.

As part of this commitment, the next NDC government will establish Women’s Development Bank to offer loans to about one million women with flexible repayment terms,”she stated in a post on X.

Aside the good governance that will foster growth in all sectors of the economy, Naana Jane said unlike President Akufo-Addo and his vice, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia who are experts in hoodwinking electorates, the NDC ticket is trustworthy and must be voted to power to fix the mess of the NPP government.

At a gathering in the Amenfi Central Constituency, she highlighted most of the job creation policies in the NDC manifesto, especially the 24-hour policy and urged the party fanatics to unite and explain the policies of the party to the people.

To her, women are good managers of finances and that the policies of the NDC will be a big boost to women in various self-employed business as well as those in the corporate world.
