Honour your promise NABCo personnel to President of Ghana
COALITION OF NABCO TRAINEES APPEAL TO GOVERNMENT TO HONOUR HIS PROMISES OF OFFERING TRAINEES PERMANENT EMPLOYMENT IN OCTOBER, 2021
Since the contract expires in October 2021, Nana Tekyi, the Coalition's Public Relations Officer PRO, has pleaded with the government to keep his pledge of permanently retaining NABCO trainees in their respective institutions. NABCO trainees are indebted to Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-government Addo's for the unprecedented launch of the Nation Builders Corps (NABCO), which has been a blessing unto the victims of the saturated graduates unemployment by accessing and extracting the practicality of corporate fields to augment their employability, according to Nana Tekyi, a young social activist and the association's PRO.
His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo assured NABCO trainees before the 2020 general elections after the Coalition submitted an official petition to the president's office. He noted that the government's commitment resulted in the development of the Career Pathway Transition Process (CPTP), which was divided into three categories and was designed to provide Trainees with long-term employment opportunities. Nana Tekyi emphasized that NABCO trainees have worked sacrificially, relentlessly, and assiduously, and for that matter, they are up to date on the practicality of the job field, they have acquired the necessary experience, and skills, and they are qualified to be integrated into the permanent mainstream rather than being retrograded back to their unemployed status in October 2021.
This is my simple juxtaposition: security service applicants are hired permanently after six months of maximum training, while NABCO trainees have gone to university for four years, completed their mandatory national service, and have been enrolled in the NABCO scheme for three years. Don't you think these sacrifices alone should entice the government to keep his promise and keep us? Nana Tekyi has a few questions for the media.
It would be unfair and inefficient for the government to recruit new beneficiaries to the NABCO scheme without also giving long-term employment to those who have previously benefited from the scheme. The public will only support the NABCO plan if the initial batch is kept on as normal employees. He made a suggestion.
According to the president's data, around 73000 beneficiaries applied for the CPTP in the hopes of obtaining a stable source of income. Imagine the negative consequences if these large numbers of graduates are asked to return home at the end of the program in October 2021. It will be a danger to the country's development. Finally, the Coalition's PRO urges CSOs, corporate institutions, the general public, and the media to add their voices to Trainees' call for permanence, arguing that any attempt by the government to backtrack on its promises will be exposed as an Achilles heel, having little impact on the NABCO scheme's much-touted effort to alleviate graduate unemployment in Ghana.

At the moment, Nabco Trainees have not been paid their minute stipends for four (4) months now. That is November, December, 2021 and January, February, 2022. Your Excellency, this is not a drill, it is happening beneath your feet. The hopeless youths of this country who have sacrificed to work for this great nation are starving. All sort of suicidal mission is running through their head. Most of them are living in rented rooms. Today is 16TH MARCH, 2022.
Ever since we started working as Nabco Trainees, the government keep bringing in new recruits while we remain at post as Trainees. We even have same or better qualification than such new recruits with on the job experience but the government fails to consider us. What crime have we committed as Nabco Trainees. Tells us, Your Excellency
It is about time our leaders stop giving the youths of this country more reason to die than to live. They will surely indulge in activities without caring about their lives as future leaders.
