Independent presidential candidate Dr. Sam Ankrah has expressed concerns about the National Democratic Congress (NDC) purportedly taking credit for some of his economic policies without giving due credit. The head of the Alternative Force for Action (AFA) said that important elements of his suggested economic methods were subtly incorporated into NDC's plans.

In the first day of Dr. Ankrah's two-day "Building Ghana Tour" in the Western Region, the matter came up at a town hall meeting with chiefs and Ellembelle villagers. NDC flagbearer John Mahama made a big announcement about the party's plans for education at this gathering. He launched the National Apprenticeship Training Programme, an ambitious proposal by the NDC government to train skilled workers for free for junior high school graduates who are unable to advance to senior high schools.

Responding to Mahama's announcement, Dr. Sam Ankrah dismissed it as "ridiculous." He highlighted the irony of the NDC proposing such measures after being in power for 16 years, questioning, “After more than 16 years of democratic rule in power, have they just realized we can address our employment issue with apprenticeship?”

As part of his campaign efforts, the development economist outlined a comprehensive ten-point agenda for managing the country if elected president. This agenda focuses on crucial areas such as affordable housing, healthcare, education, food, fuel, transportation, and a robust anti-corruption stance to establish an affordable business environment.
Dr. Ankrah emphasized the importance of affordable and sound economic policies, sustainable job creation, and the need for an efficient government machinery.
