“It was a great opportunity to explain current government policies, and efforts being made by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to deal with the challenges confronting the country,” Fawaz posted.

“I also enjoyed the useful exchanges of opinions from my interactions. Hopefully we will all work together to address many of the issues and break the 8,” he continued.

According to the deputy chief of staff, issues such as the welfare of members of NPP youth groups in the North, and the effective communication of the vision of President Akufo-Addo for the North as well as his achievements, were some of the issues that were raised by the groups he interacted with.

The ongoing impasse in Parliament over the passage of the electronic levy bill (E-Levy), apparent financial challenges in the country and the urgent need for unity at all levels of membership and leadership of the NPP are some others issues that came up, to which, he took advantage to address the concerns of the groups.
