‘1 District 1 Factory’: NDC will manage it better - Yammin

Joseph Yammin Joseph Yammin

Former Deputy Ashanti regional Minister, Hon. Joseph Yammin has revealed that the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) will better manage the ‘1 District 1 Factory’ flagship policy of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) when given the chance to govern in 2020.

The NDC’s chief stalwart made this assertion on Pure Fm in an interview with Kwame Adinkra monitored by MyNewsGh.com.

Hon. Yammin explained that, the current government is bereft of cogent ideas to implement the policy as all they cared about was trumpeting lies to secure power in the lead up to the 2016 general elections.

According to him, if given the nod in 2020 to form the next government, the NDC with the great minds and brilliant ideas, will make the policy feasible to generate employment avenues for Ghanaians who have been plunged into abject poverty by the ‘incompetence’ of the Akufo-Addo led administration.

“Kwame, these people have no idea of what they are doing, look at how the ‘1 District 1 factory policy’ has become a waste. Every day they have new excuses as to why they are failing. Doing blame games and failing to take responsibility for the mess they have plunged this country into after promising Heaven to the people. It is a shame.

When we form the next government with the trusted mandate of Ghanaians, we will make the policy better. We will generate mass employment for Ghanaians. We have done it before under the able leadership of President Mahama and we will do it again.” He stated boasting.

Meanwhile, the Deputy Trade Minister, Hon. Robert Ahomka-Lindsey in commissioning a Small Brick Charcoal Factory in Bamang, a farming community in the Kwabre East District of the Ashanti region earlier this month revealed that, the government has commissioned two hundred (200) factories across the country under the ‘1 District 1 Factory’ policy so far.
