I’ll train one million youth in software applications under my Presidency – Bawumia

Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), has promised to train about one million young Ghanaians in coding and software applications if he is elected as the next President.

The Vice President made these remarks while addressing a crowd in Kwahu Mpraeso on Saturday, March 30, 2024, during a special Easter health walk.

“The future is technology, and the youth of this country are important to drive what we want to do in technological advancement. That is why I have said we will train about 1 million young Ghanaians in coding and software applications under my Presidency” he noted.

He also pledged to implement bold decisions, including a new tax system if elected as President in the 2024 election.

“A vote for me is a vote for bold solutions. And a vote for my opponent is a vote for old solutions. I am coming with new ideas and bold solutions to move our country forward. As I have said, I am coming with a new tax system which will bring a flat tax rate and also grant tax amnesty to businesses and individuals,” he added.

Subsequently, he urged all NPP supporters to work diligently together to secure victory in the presidential election for the party.

Moreover, he called for massive support for NPP parliamentary candidates in all constituencies and hoped for victory for all candidates in the 2024 general elections.
