George Twum-Barimah-Adu [L]
New entrant into the 2024 Presidential Elections, Mr. George Twum-Barimah-Adu, has engaged the Trades Union Congress of Ghana on his bid to become the next President of Ghana.
During an engagement with the Secretary-General and representatives of organized labor of TUC, Mr. George Twum Barimah-Adu outlined his vision and strategic policies, which seek to establish a supportive environment for local businesses to prosper as a major catalyst for socioeconomic development.
In addressing issues on pensions, housing, and welfare, the Presidential candidate emphasized the significance of his 'E-Sika' scheme policy, saying it would be the ultimate game-changer to replace the controversial e-Levy.
The 'E-Sika' policy, he said, would be a scheme specifically designed to address the housing needs of the country, aimed at ensuring that every Ghanaian owns a house. The scheme will be savings, which one could use for the housing component to either make a down payment towards purchasing a house or to secure a mortgage towards a house.
Mr. George Twum-Barimah-Adu stressed the need for further dialogue between political office-seekers and labor unions to build a stronger framework that addresses not only personal welfare but also a platform for robust business operations for the transformation we want for this country.
