According to President John Dramani Mahama, trainee allowances for teachers and nurses have been added to the list of benefits for employees in the public sector. Because of this, the trainees will be able to get their allowances on a monthly basis, just like employees in the public sector do.
When President Mahama visited the Northern area as part of his nationwide thank-you tour, he declared this. Speaking in Tamale to the local chiefs and populace, President Mahama stated that the goal is to do away with delays and the arrears that come with them.
More than 500 million cedis have been set aside, according to President Mahama, to buy textbooks locally for all basic schools, resolving the problem of no textbooks in the last eight years.
Though many claimed their faith in the NDC was eroding, President Mahama expressed gratitude to the Northern area for their commitment and faith in the NDC.
