"This economy of ours can never develop without developing agriculture systematically and scientifically. This is because over the years, we have paid lip service to technical and vocational education and training and our education has tended to be what is described as a grammarian.
"It is time to change focus from grammarian education to technical vocational education and training and therefore this project is just right," he said on Accra-based Kingdom FM.
He said he will establish Technical and Vocational Education and Training in every district to enable school drop-outs to acquire some skills in attaining jobs when elected in the upcoming 2024 polls.
