Gov’t’s biggest problem is job creation – Nana Addo

President Akufo-Addo has stated that the biggest challenge his government is seeking to address is job creation. According to him, the government is adopting various measures including the National Entrepreneurship and Innovations Plan to tackle the high level of unemployment in the country.

Speaking at the press conference in Accra to account for his first 6 months in office, he said: “the greatest challenge we face is the creation of jobs.” The National Entrepreneurship and Innovations Plan which was launched last week with a seed amount of 10 million cedis is to help start-ups and entrepreneurs to establish themselves in business.

Outlining other plans to create jobs at the meeting, Nana Addo mentioned his government’s much-touted Planting for Food and Jobs program saying that agriculture is one of the major sectors his government targets to create jobs.
