John Dumelo is suggesting that the rent control law be enforced to put citizens on a 6 month pay plan instead of the ongoing two to three years.
According to him, enforcing this law saves the nation a great deal of money.
The establishment of the National Rent Assistance Scheme is dead on arrival. Why not enforce the rent control act 220 so citizens pay 6 months rent advance instead of 2-3years being charged? Enforce the law and save money, simple!

The Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia announced that the New Patriotic Party will provide assistance to the youth to rent decent homes through the form of loans.
He said this at the official launch of the party’s election 2020 manifesto in the Central Region on August 22, 2020.
“There are lots of youth who when they finish school, to rent accommodation is a big problem especially because of the demand for rent allowance sometimes up to two years demand. But someone who just finished school and is starting a job doesn’t have that savings to pay all these huge demands for rent allowance…There is a market failure…This is why the government has decided to come in and bridge this market failure by setting up a National Rental Assistance Scheme,” he said.
