Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, the National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has scolded a security officer in a viral video.
In the viral video, the NDC questioned the security officer whether he was at the event to work or to chase women.
Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, in the video, stated, “Security, masa (master), are you here to work or chase after women?”
His remarks drew laughter from people nearby as he repeatedly addressed the officer.
The NDC National Chairman is on a three-day ‘Thank You Tour’ of the Ashanti Region.
In related news, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah has urged Ghanaians and party members to exercise patience as President John Mahama works to provide opportunities for everyone.
According to Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, the anger being displayed by Ghanaian youths over the low intake of applicants in Ghana’s security services will not solve anything.
The NDC Chairman detailed that the first priority is to strengthen the economy, which will create more employment opportunities for Ghanaian youth.
Speaking to party supporters in Dodowa in the Greater Accra Region, Asiedu Nketiah stated, “The anger will not solve the problem. Without sufficient funds, how can we employ more than necessary? Fixing issues takes time. The first priority is to strengthen the economy, and President Mahama is working diligently on this.
“We are already beginning to see the benefits. We must exercise a little more patience to allow these efforts to create opportunities for everyone,” he said.
He added, “Rising impatience will not help. Let us learn to be patient. Things will improve, and this government is committed to opening up opportunities for all.”
Also, the NDC Chairman has bemoaned that Ghana’s universities are merely training students mainly to seek employment.
The NDC National Chairman highlighted that Ghana needs a reorientation of its educational system to emphasise innovation and entrepreneurship.
According to Asiedu Nketiah, innovation and entrepreneurship are the ways Ghana can address its growing youth unemployment.
Speaking during the launch of the Volta Youth Development Fund in Ho on Saturday, March 7, cited that in many developed countries, universities focus on researching societal problems and developing solutions that contribute to economic growth.
Asiedu Nketiah stated, “In many developed countries, universities research societal problems and develop solutions that contribute to economic growth, but here most of our universities are training students mainly to seek employment”.
“It is simply not possible for any government to employ all graduates coming out of our universities. Somebody must begin to create jobs and employment opportunities so that others can also be employed,” he said.
“Economies grow when people identify problems affecting society and convert solutions into sources of income,” he said.
