In this regard, young people must be made to know quite frankly that, given the challenges that lie ahead of us as a people, it would have to be tough before it becomes easier.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe would all have to tighten our belts a little more, from whoever heads the country to the lowest rated citizen. From the topmost politician to the party footsoldier, all must brace themselves to endure a little more suffering, after which things would begin to ease up,\u201d he said while reacting to the launch of the NDC Youth Manfuefsto in Accra on Monday, August 12.<\/p>\n<p>The NDC youth manifesto has promised among others that there will be no fees for level 100 students in all the public universities under a Mahama administration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About Ghana Follow Africa-Press<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
