John Mahama has said he is now determined than ever to build Ghana to greater heights, having been inspired by the zeal and enthusiasm with which the Ghanaian people want to see change.
The flag bearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), having been inspired by the craftsmen he encountered on his way to Wa Thursday, June 13, 2024, indicated the unwavering support and tireless dedication of the youth he encountered to their craft, is another reason for his administration to prioritise technical and vocational education.
In a post made on his Facebook after the trip, the former President noted that he will “implement a scheme to support master craftsmen and women to train apprentices and support artisans with funds and start-up equipment.”
John Mahama says the zeal of the young men “only solidified my commitment to implementing meaningful and transformative policies that will uplift the lives of every Ghanaian.”

I had an incredibly exciting experience on my way to Wa earlier today. Between Sawla and Wa, I made a few whistle-stops to interact with some passionate, hardworking artisans in the local communities.
Their unwavering support and tireless dedication to their craft are not only awe-inspiring but even more the “appropriate technology” being used to serve their clients. Another reason why my government will prioritise technical and vocational education, implement a scheme to support master craftsmen and women to train apprentices and support artisans with funds and start-up equipment.
The enthusiasm and zeal for change in the country’s political leadership were evident. This only solidified my commitment to implementing meaningful and transformative policies that will uplift the lives of every Ghanaian.
Their energy and passion give me a renewed sense of purpose and drive, and I am more determined than ever to lead this country to greater heights.
Together, we will build the Ghana we want and move on to progress and prosperity!
