The New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has announced that his policy to train one million youth in digital skills will include 5,000 young people from the Kwadaso Constituency. This initiative aims to equip youth with skills such as coding, enabling them to work remotely from home.
Speaking at a constituency connect event in Kwadaso, Dr. Bawumia described the policy as a transformative approach to job creation, which he believes will be a “game changer” for employment opportunities. “The youth need skills. We’ve introduced technical and vocational training, but they also need digital skills, as the world has shifted to digital.
“From right here in Kwadaso, one can work for companies in the US, Canada, and Singapore. Even school dropouts can be trained. “My goal is to have at least one million people trained in digital skills, starting with five thousand youth from Kwadaso Constituency. This way, they can stay here and still work internationally”
