Head of the Liberal Party of Ghana (LPG), Kofi Akpaloo, has pledged to provide unemployment benefits to the youth if he emerges winner in the 2024 general elections.

Speaking with the media on Wednesday, August 9, 2023, the former LPG presidential candidate highlighted the long-standing neglect of Ghanaian youth and his commitment to rectify the situation.

"The LPG will do something different, and we are going to make sure that we pay you unemployment benefits and support you with income to sustain the youth. We need to create an environment so that the young people in Ghana can make it and prosper."

He outlined his plan to offer child benefits to those below eighteen and unemployment benefits to those above eighteen years of age.

Furthermore, Akpaloo expressed his intent to maintain the Free SHS policy while streamlining the management of education.

"We will merge JHS and SHS together to become one school such that we turn them into day schools. We don't need boarding schools today to promote national cohesion because we have different tribes living in other regions," he added.
