On October 13, 2026, the National Entrepreneurship and Innovation Programme (NEIP) and the Student Workforce and Innovation Movement (SWIM) signed a Memorandum of Understanding at @mydeghana. This strategic partnership bridges the gap between education and the job market by empowering young Ghanaians to convert their ideas into sustainable businesses. Aligned with President John Dramani Mahama’s Resetting Ghana Agenda, the initiative positions youth as active drivers of national economic transformation rather than mere participants. #YouthPower

Ofie! This is how we proudly celebrated the 200th Anniversary of the Akuapem Odwira Festival. This year's edition is highly significant, marking two centuries of rich heritage since its founding in 1826 after the victory at Katamanso, and emphasizing purification and thanksgiving. #YouthPower

On September 24th, I had the pleasure of receiving Her Excellency Diarra Dimé-Labille, Ambassador of France to Ghana, for a courtesy call at @mydeghana. Our discussions focused on deepening bilateral cooperation, expanding skills development and entrepreneurship programs, and creating new strategic pathways for young Ghanaians through strong international partnerships. Government remains committed to fostering impactful collaborations that empower the next generation and drive sustainable development. #YouthPower

I delivered the keynote on Day 2 of the Pan-African AI & Innovation Summit 2026 in Accra this morning. In my speech, I highlighted that with over 70% of Ghana's population aged 35 and under, expanding access to training isn't enough; we must shift our focus to job placement, sustainable income, and long-term career growth. The National Youth Tracker Platform and YouthXplore App are tackling fragmentation across youth programmes by using data and AI-curated pathways to connect young people to jobs, apprenticeships, mentorship, and capital. Alongside this, the One Million Coders Programme and Adwumawura Programme are aligning skills training with high-growth sectors like agribusiness, manufacturing, digital services, and AI. Beyond Ghana, we need a borderless African talent ecosystem, backed by initiatives like the AI for Youth Africa Fellowship and AfCFTA frameworks, for portable, recognized credentials that let young Africans compete across markets. This demands deeper industry co-design, with the private sector helping shape curricula and build employment pipelines tied to real market demand. By connecting training, capital, mentorship, and employment, we move from preparing young people for the future to helping them earn, build careers, and drive Africa's economic transformation. #YouthPower #JobsForYoungPeople

On the sidelines of the International Festival of Youth in Yekaterinburg, Russia, I had the opportunity to present key projects within Ghana’s youth ecosystem. I provided updates on how our interventions are helping young people succeed in a constantly changing global environment, preparing them for sustainable livelihoods and positioning them to compete confidently in the international market. Initiatives like the National Apprenticeship Programme, Adwumawura Programme, the S.E.E.D Programme, One Million Coders Programme, and many others are transforming our approach to the most pressing issues facing our youth. These initiatives demonstrate Ghana’s commitment to empowering its youth with the skills, resilience, and innovation needed to drive national progress while making meaningful contributions to the global community. #YouthPower

Earlier today, I hosted a delegation from the National Development Planning Commission (NDPC) to assess Ghana’s High-Impact SDG Targets. Our discussions focused on progress towards critical targets, such as decent work for youth under SDG 8.5. This engagement will help us refine our strategies, align resources, and move faster toward the 2030 Agenda. By working closely with the NDPC, we keep our youth empowerment programmes aligned with national development priorities and contribute to human capital development and inclusive growth. We remain committed to equipping young Ghanaians with the skills, opportunities and support they need to drive Ghana’s sustainable future. #YouthPower

This morning, I participated in the inaugural National Youth Parliament Mock Sitting organized by the National Youth Authority (NYA). It was a simulation that allowed young people to experience parliamentary proceedings, deepen civic engagement, and build leadership skills. Time and again, Ghana's youth have shown they are capable, visionary, and ready to lead. This mock sitting is not just symbolic; it strongly proves our young people's readiness and potential to lead. #WithImmediateEffect
