Leader of the New Force Movement, Nana Kwame Bediako, has expressed his intention to collaborate with the Trades Union Congress (TUC) to drive substantial economic and social progress for Ghana if elected President.
Nana Kwame Bediako, popularly known as Cheddar, believes that a strong partnership with the TUC will ensure the successful implementation of his proposed policies for the country.
Mr. Bediako made these remarks during a meeting with the TUC leadership in Accra, where he outlined his industrial policies for Ghana.
His plan includes initiatives to combat corruption, improve agriculture, enhance education and healthcare, and address climate change, among other areas.
Dr. Anthony Yaw Baah, Secretary-General of the TUC, urged Ghanaians to reevaluate the flagship policy of the New Force Movement regarding the dredging of the sea to Kumasi in the Ashanti region.
He clarified that the policy had been misrepresented and emphasized its practicality and potential benefits.
Dr. Baah encouraged support for political leaders whose policies have the potential to transform the country, stating that Organized Labour is prepared to support initiatives that lead to significant developmental outcomes.
“If you look at the river systems, when you dredge the Pra, Tano, Bia and the rest, it easily links to Cape Coast. And his point was that why should we use our roads to cart things?
“We can use our river systems, once we dredge properly, the vessels can use it and transport it from Accra to the North.
“God has given us a huge river that we are not using because many people don’t really understand that policy,” he said.
