Organized Labour has called on Ghanaians to reassess the proposed flagship policy of the New Force Movement to dredge the sea to Kumasi in the Ashanti region.

They indicated that the policy, presented by the leader of the New Force Movement, has been seriously misconstrued, emphasising its practicality and potential benefits.

Speaking at a meeting between the New Force Movement and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) of Ghana, to present the 16 industrial policies of the Movement, the Secretary-General of the TUC, Dr. Anthony Yaw Baah, expressed support for political leaders whose policies can transform the country.

He highlighted that Organized Labour is prepared to back initiatives that promise significant developmental impacts.

"If you look at the river systems, when you dredge the Pra, Tano, Bia and the rest, it easily links to Cape Coast. And his point was that why should we use our roads to cut things?

We can actually use our river systems, once we dredge properly, the vessels can use it, and they can transport it from Accra to the North.“God has given us a huge river that we are not using because many people don’t really understand that policy.”

Nana Kwame Bediako, the leader and founder of the New Force Movement, outlined key points from the movement’s sixteen industrial policies plan to the TUC.

Addressing issues such as corruption, agriculture, education, health, and climate change, Bediako emphasized the need for a robust partnership with the TUC.

He highlighted the critical role of collaboration in the successful execution of these initiatives, stressing that such cooperation is vital for driving significant economic and social advancements in Ghana.
