HOW THE NPP GOVERNMENT HAS REDUCED THE SUFFERING OF GHANAIANS

Below is the summary of payments:

A SUMMARY OF PAYMENTS MADE TO CUSHION GHANAIANS IN THE YEARS 2017-2021

FREE SHS GHC 5.3 Billion

FERTILIZER SUBSIDY GHC 2.95 Billion

TEACHER TRAINING ALLOWANCES. GHC 770 Million

NURSING TRAINING ALLOWANCES GHC 860 Million

NABCO. GHC 2.1 Million

BECE EXAM FEES SUBSIDY
GHC 250 Million

COVID EXPENDITURES. GHC 8.1 Million

FINACIAL SECTOR CLEAN UP
GHC 25 Billion

EXCESS CAPACITY PAYMENTS
GHC 17 Billion

IN TOTAL THESE INTERVENTIONS TO REDUCE THE SUFFERING OF GHANAIANS AMOUNT TO GHC 62.3 billion ($8.5 billion) AND HAVE PROVEN TO BE CRITICAL SHOCK ABSORBERS IN THIS CRISIS PERIOD OF RISING PRICES FOR GOODS AND SERVICES GLOBALLY

IMAGINE WHAT MANY HOUSEHOLDS WOULD BE GOING THROUGH TODAY IF IN ADDITION TO THE PRICE INCREASES ON THE MARKET:

THEY HAD TO PAY FOR SCHOOL FEES, TEXT BOOKS, UNIFORMS AND FEEDING OF THEIR WARDS IN SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL AND TVET

THEY HAD TO PAY MUCH HIGHER INCREASES IN ELECTRICITY AND WATER BILLS

THEY HAD TO PAY EXAMINATION FEES FOR BECE AND
WACSSE STUDENTS

IF 4.6 Million PEOPLE HAD LOST THEIR DEPOSITS IN THE BANK

IF FARMERS HAD NO SUBSIDIZED FERTILIZER

IF DUMSOR WAS BACK

IF TEACHER TRAINING ALLOWANCES WERE CANCELLED

IF NURSING TRAINING ALLOWANCES WERE CANCELLED

NO RECRUITMENT OF TEACHERS AND NURSES

IF THERE WAS A PUBLIC SECTOR FREEZE ON EMPLOYMENT

IF THERE WAS NO EXPANSION ON LEAP

IF THERE WAS NO EXPANSION SCHOOL FEEDING

CLEARLY, MILLIONS OF HOUSEHOLDS WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A MUCH WORSE SHAPE WITHOUT THESE INTERVENTIONS

THESE ARE PROGRAMS THE NPP GOVERNMENT HAVE CONTINUED WITH NOTWITHSTANDING THE CURRENT CHALLENGES WHICH HAS RESULTED IN SOMETIMES DELAYS IN PAYMENTS

LOOKING AROUND AFRICA, SO MANY COUNTRIES GOING THROUGH THIS CRISIS DO NOT HAVE THE SOCIAL INTERVENTIONS THAT THE NPP GOVERNMENT HAS INTRODUCED.

THE NPP GOVERNMENT HAS BEEN VERY SENSITIVE TO THE PLIGHT OF SUFFERING GHANAIANS

WITHOUT THESE SHOCK ABSORBERS THINGS WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE FOR OUR CITIZENS
