Poor, vulnerable to benefit from PNC government
Accra, Sept. 10, Ghanadot/GNA - The People’s National
Convention (PNC) will allocate majority of resources to the
deprived and vulnerable in society.
The General Secretary of the PNC, Mr Bernard Mornah said
this on Wednesday at the party’s headquarters in Accra
during an interview with the Ghana News Agency (GNA).
“Our blueprint is that majority of the society’s benefits
will be focused on the poor and vulnerable and marginalised
in the society,” he said, stating that, the former and
present governments had failed to make the poor and
vulnerable have access to social benefits.
Briefing GNA on the party’s manifesto, Mr Mornah said the
party’s priority was focused on agriculture, education,
health and the youth.
“The PNC will re-look at education, auditing it from basic
to tertiary level.”
Mr Mornah also said equitable distribution would be
guaranteed in the health sector when the party came to
power, adding that the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS)
was not being implemented well as citizens could only be
given treatment in their respective district hospitals.
He said the media was biased as it paid more attention to
some parties to the exclusion of others and stressed the
need for the media to tell the public the content of every
manifesto.
Mr Mornah also said the party was anchored on the youth to
tap their energy.
