Standard of living better than before - NPP MP

Standard of living has improved considerably compared to previous years, Dr Mark Assibey-Yeboah, a New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament (MP), has said.

To the New Juabeng South legislator, even though Ghanaians are still confronted with myriad economic challenges, there has been massive progress in recent times.

Dr Assibey-Yeboah made the observation on Peace FM in Accra on Thursday, revealing that the latest water and energy crises are a reflection of the past.

He complained of bad telecommunication network, which he added, has negatively affected several businesses in the country.

As a result, the MP called on government to institute measure to address the prevailing erratic power and water supply, since those were the major challenges hampering Ghana’s progression.

“Ghana is over 55 years now and it is important that certain things are done properly to assist businesses grow for more people to be employed," the NPP MP said.

“What we are currently experiencing is unacceptable and it is about time government took steps to fix those challenges."
