Independent candidate, Jacob Osei Yeboah has outlined his vision ahead of the 2020 presidential election.

The independent candidate who contested the 2012 and 2016 presidential elections said his slogan for this year’s election is "Your vote is your freedom; Your vote is your prayer”.

He told Uncle Bright on ‘Ghana Kasa’ on Rainbow Radio 87.5FM that he will be pursuing an agenda that will create jobs, opportunities for all and youth empowerment, an agenda which he coined from his name.

He disclosed to the host that all Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) appointed will be young persons not above and below the age of 30 years.

His deputy ministers shall be persons between the ages of 35-45 years.

The substantive ministers shall not be persons who have exceeded the age of 53 years.

"This is to empower people. We do not want to appoint people who are not strong and will sleep at public events,” he stated.
