A Deputy Communications Officer of the governing New Patriotic Party, Kamal Deem Abdullah<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>has said trainees under the Nation Builders Corps (NABCO<\/a><\/strong>) have the right to demand what is due them as far as their arrears are concerned.<\/p>\n

In his view, even if they are owed one month, they have the right to demand the payment.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am putting myself in their shoes and I empathize with them, they have the right to demand that the government pays them and government must do what is necessary,\u201d he said on the New Day show with Johnnie Hughes on TV3 Friday September 2.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere I have a problem is that, even if the NABCO trainees are owed one month, they have the right to demand what is due them,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n

He further indicated that the government had good intention for introducing the programme.<\/p>\n

They should also understand that it was for the good intention that the government of the NPP brought the NABCO initiative,\u201d Kamal said.<\/p>\n

The initiative came to an end on Thursday, September 1, 2022. This was announced earlier by the Finance Minister Ken OPfori Atta.<\/p>\n

Presenting the 2022 budget statement to Parliament on July 25,\u00a0 Ofori-Atta said \u201cMr. Speaker, our iconic Nation Builder\u2019s Corps (NaBCo) programme, which was initially to run for three years and extended for an additional year, will be completed by 1st September 2022. The programme which engaged a 100,000 young graduates has prepared thousands of them for the world of work. So far we have invested approximately GH\u00a22.2 billion,\u201d the Finance Minister told Parliament.<\/p>\n

Ofori-Atta added that \u201cAs they exit, the current cohort on the programme are encouraged to take advantage of your start an initiative and other existing programmes in our drive to build an entrepreneurial nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Kamal Deen further indicated that the government has no apology for ending the programme.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet us come and apologize sincerely to them for the non-payment of the salaries, but government owes no one apology for ending the programme,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
