The acting National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Freddie Blay has urged the president, Nana Akufo-Addo to prioritize loyalists of the NPP in the government\u2019s programs.<\/p>\n

According to him, it is \u201conly fair that those who worked for the government to be in power\u201d to be first time beneficiaries of the government\u2019s policy programs.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”QQOseSuneL17bIi1wswfvOQsGTTomsF2″]Delivering his opening address at the NPP\u2019s National Delegates\u2019 Conference in the Central Region, Freddy Blay said such party members must also be made ambassadors for the party\u2019s policy programs in their respective communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is only fair that those who worked for the government to be in power, who believes in the policies and support of its implementation, must be first time beneficiaries and channels \/of communication of government programs in our communities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is advisable and imperative that our government recognizes the creative and entrepreneurial abilities of members of our party and economically empower them so that they can be an example of the prosperity we seek to deliver to Ghanaians,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Freddie Blay\u2019s comment comes to support one made in April this year by the Deputy Minister for Roads and Highways, Anthony Abayifa Karbo who implored DCE\u2019s to consider hard working party members first in employment opportunities.<\/p>\n

Freddie Blay noted that there has been growing concerns from some members of the party that they do not have jobs despite working hard to get the party into government.<\/p>\n

He said there are \u201cgrowing complaints about access to government functionaries and lack of employment which we inherited from the NDC administration. This is disturbing but related to the economic problem.\u201d
