Below the complete statement
On the occasion of May 1, 2019, I congratulate, on behalf of the National Democratic Congress (NCD), all Ghanaian workers and our comrades around the world for your immense and immense sacrifices, from dawn to dusk, all year.
Over the years, over the years, we have added to the earnings of our ancestors. However, I am aware of the difficult socio-economic context in which we still expect a lot from you.
In addition, I am aware of unprecedented insecurity in our country, which is becoming a major threat to foreign and domestic investment in our economy.
Like many disappointed Ghanaians, including yourself, I am also aware of the many unfulfilled promises of this government, which have led to the double phenomenon of mbadive job losses and mbadive unemployment.
On this special day, I encourage you, hardworking workers and citizens, not to despair. Do not give up on yourself and Ghana. Let's keep hope alive and pray for better times in the years to come.
On my side, I promise you honest, selfless and dedicated leadership to improve the well-being and security of all Ghanaians.
Let me also remind the government of the overriding need to work conscientiously towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and, in this particular case, Goal 8, which advocates the promotion of growth. sustainable economic development and decent work for all.
Happy Labour Day!
