The Youth Wing of the People’s National Party (PNP) wishes to extend its heartfelt
congratulations to His Excellency President John Dramani Mahama for his bold decision to
designate an entire ministry to focus solely on the youth of Ghana.

This progressive initiative
will undoubtedly serve as a significant step toward identifying and addressing the pressing
challenges faced by the youth, while paving the way for sustainable solutions to secure their
future.
We equally congratulate the Minister of Youth Development and Empowerment, who has
distinguished himself as a stalwart youth leader and a passionate advocate for youth-focused
policies.

The PNP Youth Wing is confident that his wealth of experience and unwavering
commitment to youth empowerment will guide him in addressing the numerous challenges
confronting young people in Ghana today.
However, we wish to caution the Minister to avoid turning the ministry into an extension of the National Democratic Congress (NDC). Rather, we urge him to lead a ministry that serves all
Ghanaian youth, regardless of political affiliations. Ghana can only be built on a solid
foundation when the youth unite to prioritise job creation over job-seeking, shed divisive
political allegiances, and embrace a nationalistic spirit that focuses on building a better and more inclusive Ghana.

The PNP Youth Wing pledges its full support and cooperation with any institution or initiative
that seeks to uplift the youth and bring meaningful transformation to their lives. We stand ready to collaborate on strategies that empower the next generation to become active contributors to
national development.

Once again, congratulations to President Mahama and the Minister of Youth Development and Empoerment. The PNP Youth Wing looks forward to a ministry that truly represents the hopes and aspirations of all Ghanaian youth. PNP: My Family, My Community. My Motherland

Muniru Mohammed
