The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has reaffirmed its dedication to youth empowerment and community development in Agona West. As the Youth Organizer, Frank Freebody Mensah has introduced several initiatives aimed at equipping young party members with valuable skills, fostering entrepreneurship, and promoting self-sufficiency.
Recently, Mensah sponsored two dedicated party members to acquire handy skills in Agona Nyakrom, covering their apprenticeship fees and providing additional support. These individuals are undergoing training in hairdressing and seamstress skills, empowering them and honoring their families’ contributions to the party. This initiative is part of a broader effort to provide skills training opportunities to youth across Agona West.
Earlier, 10 individuals from Upper Bobikuma benefited from similar training programs in various fields. Mensah’s goal is to extend this opportunity to every Electoral Area, ensuring equal access to entrepreneurship and skills development.
In line with the party’s vision, Mensah has launched the “Youth Ghetto Connect” initiative, a grassroots outreach program engaging young people across the constituency. This initiative shares the NDC’s values and ideals, as embodied by President John Mahama and Parliamentary candidate Obaapa Tina, inspiring and mobilizing youth to shape their communities’ future.
These initiatives demonstrate the NDC’s unwavering commitment to empowering Ghana’s youth and promoting community development. By investing in skills training and youth engagement, the party is building a stronger, more resilient foundation for Agona West’s future. Under Mensah’s leadership, the Agona West Youth Wing will continue to prioritize initiatives uplifting and empowering young people, fostering a brighter future for all.
