He announced that the next NDC administration will introduce the Big Push agenda to create employment, a manifesto that would convince Ghanaians to vote for NDC to win 60 percent of seats in Parliament.
He said the NDC government will establish a farmer mechanization centre in Yendi with 15 tractors, combine harvesters and other farming inputs for farmers and urged them to register for the tractors to plough for them and pay only after harvesting their crops.
He said the Free Senior High School Education was good and nobody would change it, but to make it better, that was why the NDC government considered building 200 Community Day Schools that were abandoned by the NPP government.
He said private schools would also benefit from the Free SHS education and would do away with the double track, if they return to power.
Mr John Mahama said they had three major projects for Yendi, made up of a new hospital, under the Big Push, design and expand the Yendi water system and create employment for the youth in police service, Forestry Commission amongst others.
He promised that his next government would adequately equip the security to curb crime wave in the country.
