Expand your institutions and employ the youth – Bawumia to heads of state institutions
Heads of the various state institutions have been challenged by Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to take advantage of the confidence President Akufo-Addo has in them to make a mark at the various institutions where they have been placed.
This include making room for expansion in the said institution for the youth to also get more opportunities.
Dr. Bawumia further admonished the heads of institutions saying “The most serious threat to the nation’s security is unemployment. The Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo government has made significant progress in resolving this issue.
“But there’s a lot more that must be done. The challenge is real and your role in tackling the unemployment quandary cannot be overemphasized,” he said while speaking at the closing ceremony of a retreat for board chairpersons, heads and deputy heads of government institutions at Nkwatia-Kwahu on Sunday, November 21.
He added, “As heads of institution, if you can expand your scope of operation for maximum returns and profitability, to be able to recruit the youth to tackle this heinous joblessness among the nation’s youth, we will have made significant progress in providing jobs for our youth.”
“You have been specially selected and appointed by the President who has a lot of confidence in your ability to turn around the fortunes of your institutions. I know you will meet this expectation and make the country proud.”
“Let us show the Ghanaian people how grateful we are for the opportunity to serve our country. Let us add value to the public sector.”
