Ghana's 24-Hour Economy Policy: Is the NDC Government Failing Youth Employment? (2026)

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) government's promise of a 24-hour economy with the 'one job, three shifts' (1-3-3) policy has been called into question by the Member of Parliament for Damongo, Samuel Abu Jinapor. He argues that the government has failed to deliver on its campaign promise, which aimed to reduce youth unemployment. Jinapor points out that the only institution currently operating a three-shift system is Parliament itself, specifically the Office of the Speaker, where Alban Bagbin, Bernard Ahiafor, and Andrew Asiamah are the only ones working three shifts. Jinapor describes the government's handling of the policy as misleading and accuses them of raising false expectations among the unemployed youth. He insists that the government must be held accountable for its campaign promises. This statement has sparked debate and invites discussion on the effectiveness of the government's policies and the reality of the 'one job, three shifts' system.
