Flagbearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has assured beneficiaries of the Nation Builders Corps (NABCo) of permanent jobs if he wins power.
Speaking to private businessmen in Accra ahead of the December 7 polls, the former President and flagbearer for the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama said the next NDC administration will see to it that graduates are given permanent jobs.
According to Mahama, a thorough Human Resource Gap (HR Gap) study into the public sector suggests that there is more room for graduate employment in the public sector.
“This explains why we have conducted a thorough Human Resource Gap (HR Gap) study into the public sector. The analysis shows there is more room for graduate employment in the public sector as well. The Ghana Health Service has a human resource gap of 76,795.“The Ghana Education Service has a gap of 98,650 and altogether, the security services – Ghana National Fire Service, Ghana Immigration Service, Ghana Prison Service, Ghana Police Service and Ghana Armed Forces – have over 100,000 job vacancies.
