    Beatrice Annan, a member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) communication team, has taken issue with Stephen Yakubu, the Upper East Regional Minister, for allegedly undermining John Mahama’s 24-hour economy policy.

    Annan highlighted that while young people are coping with the difficulties of unemployment, their basic needs extend beyond sexual cravings.

    Minister Yakubu questioned the 24-hour economy policy’s viability in a video that went viral on social and traditional media, implying that it might conflict with farmers’ marital responsibilities.

    Yakubu defended his comments in the face of criticism, saying that he was only warning his constituents.

    Beatrice Annan expressed her confusion at the remarks made by a government appointee during an appearance on Metro TV in Accra, saying that they objectify women.

    She emphasized the irony of a public servant focusing on sexual issues rather than the youth unemployment crisis while receiving benefits like a Land Cruiser and a daily allowance.

    “He is on the government payroll, enjoying allowances and a Land Cruiser, yet he is fixated on sex and objectifying women. The youth of this country cannot even afford basic needs, let alone think about relationships. Romance without financial stability is futile,” Annan exclaimed.

    She also urged the ruling administration and its spokespeople to offer different approaches to generating jobs instead of mocking the idea of a 24-hour business.

    Annan drew attention to the difference between the privileged few who savor government benefits and the impoverished youth who prioritize obtaining basic needs over romantic relationships.

    “Instead of sitting in their Land Cruisers and enjoying government largesse, they should focus on addressing our needs. We want food first, and then we can think about other aspects of life, including relationships,” she asserted.

    Meanwhile, Stephen Yakubu, the Upper East Regional Minister, has stated that his remarks regarding former President John Mahama’s suggested 24-hour economy policy are correct.

    According to Mr. Stephen Yakubu, cautioning his people is essential to prevent them from being duped by those who support the policy.
