The first 100 days of the NPP's administration have been positively eventful, productive and even phenomenal, given the difficult circumstances under which it assumed power, the youth wing of the party has said.

"For a government that has no experience in governance to be able to present a budget, appoint its full complement of Ministers and Cabinet and keep the machinery of state running flawlessly within a short time, is phenomenal."

These were contained in a statement issued on Monday by the Youth Wing of the party and signed by its Acting National Chairman, Mr Kwame Twumasi-Awuah in Sunyani, to commemorate the government's first three months in office.

It said an objective analysis of its performance proves that the government has performed creditably, especially given the "precarious nature of the economy it inherited".

"President John A Kufuor and his team have proved wrong, sceptics who thought that it was going to plunge the country into chaos because of its lack of experience in governance".

The statement said the joining of the HIPC Initiative and increase in fuel prices over the period under review are nonetheless, some of the head-on initiatives taken by the government to solve the country's socio-economic problems.

It welcomed the creation of new ministries of Private Sector Development, Women's Affairs, Basic Education and Girl-Child Education, describing them as "visionary and ground-breaking".

"Over the same period, the President found time to travel to neighbouring countries with the view to improving relations with them in order to achieve peace and stability in the sub-region".

"As the government marks its first 100 days in office, we wish to commend President Kufuor and his team for their sterling performance and resourcefulness in handling difficult national issues".

The statement appealed to Ghanaians to be patient and continue to support the government as it takes steps to salvage the country's economy.
