The president gave the region its share when it comes to governmental appointments, distribution of developmental projects, recruitment of individuals in the various security agencies among other aspects of national development”, he said.
That notwithstanding, he commended the government for the introduction of the Nation Builders Corps (NABCO) which according to him has given temporal employment to young unemployed graduates whiles equipping them with the needed skills for the job market and possible absorption into government payroll.
He added that implementation of the Free SHS educational policy is unprecedented in the history of the country and that, the policy has lessen the burden on parents in the payment of the fees of their wards.
