The Youth Organizer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), George Opare Addo has said that the future of the youth depends heavily on education and the opportunities that come with it.
A statement signed by Youth Organizer George Opare Addo indicated the President Akufo-Addo and his Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. Leaders have consistently have expressed interest in developing the youth, they aim to rather create, loot and share.
The statement was issued in commemoration of the International Youth Day on the theme “Transforming Food Systems: Youth Innovation for Human and Planetary Health”.
“President Akufo Addo and his vice, Dr. Bawumia consider the saying that, the youth are the future leaders as some comical and fanciful words often said to young people to take their minds off real issues anytime it was time for him and his political hangers-on to loot and milk the State dry for his family interest,’’ the statement added.
The statement affirmed that Presidents are elected to work in the ultimate interest of the electorates, particularly the youth who are regarded as the leaders of tomorrow.
“Unfortunately, however, not only has President Akufo Addo and his government changed the keys to the door of education that is said to be critical but they have also barricaded the said figurative door with questionable and shambolic policies. This has succeeded, sadly to say, in collapsing education at all levels,” the statement said.
