IMANI Africa leader Franklin Cudjoe thinks some new job programs might waste money. He talked about President Mahama finishing four months as the leader. The Adwumawura plan, the One Million Coders project, and the National Apprenticeship Program need better planning. These efforts cost about GH₵200 million but might not help the economy grow.
Cudjoe believes jobs must clearly contribute to making the country richer. He wants officials to check how these programs affect business growth before spending. The government should create work that fits into existing business needs. Many people need jobs, but throwing cash at quick fixes solves nothing. Jobs must add real value instead of just keeping people busy during the day.
