  According to him, technical and vocational skills would empower the youth to produce products for the market and earn some money.

  FIRST OF ALL, GHANA HAS ABUNDANT RESOURCES GOLD, DIAMONDS, TIMBER, BAUXITE, OIL, TO FUND FREE EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN UP TO 18 YRS OLD AT LEAST. THAT IS THE BEST WAY GHANA & AFRICA CAN INVEST IN THEIR CHILDREN TO ENABLE THEM TO HAVE BRIGHT FUTURES WITHIN THEIR COUNTRIES.
  
  ALTHOUGH SOME OF THE SKILLS CAN BE TAUGHT EVEN IF YOU CANNOT READ OR WRITE, THE BEST WAY IS TO HAVE A LITERATE POPULATION! PERIOD! IF YOU CANNOT READ OR WRITE HOW CAN YOU KEEP YOUR BOOKS OR WRITE DOWN INSTUCTIONS FOR ANYBODY?
  
  ULTIMATLEY BEING LITERATE(BEING ABLE TO READ AND WRITE) IS THE BEST SOLUTION!
  TOO MANY GHANAIAN CHILDREN ARE STREET HAWKERS SELLING EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN! BREAD, WATER,ONIONS, YAM, PHONE CHARGERS, ART, SLIPPERS ETC INSTEAD OF BEING AT SCHOOL.
  
  WHY OUR PRESIDENTS IN THE PAST AND CURRENT PRESIDENT, MINISTERS, AND THE ECONOMIST LET THIS WICKEDNESS WE ARE INFLICTING ON OUR CHILDREN(THE FUTURE OF GHANA)CONTINUE IS UNBELIEVABLE!
  
  AFRICANS LEADERS RATHER KEEP THE MASSES IGNORANT AND POOR SO THEY CAN KEEP STEALING MONEY FROM THE COFFERS OF THE STATE? SOO SAD AND PATHETIC.
  
  PROVIDING CHILDREN UP TO AGE 18YRS WITH FREE EDUCATION IS AN INVESTMENT IN GHANA'S FUTURE. ONCE THEY ARE LITERATE SOME OF THESE CHILDREN CAN LEARN VOCATIONAAL SKILLS OR GO ON TO UNIVERSITY OR BECOME SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENUERS.
  
  INITIALLY FREE EDUCATION WILL BE FOR CHILDREN UP TO 18 YRS OLD AND ANY ADULTS WHO IS AVAILABLE TO LEARN HOW TO READ AND WRITE.
  
  AFRICAN LEADERS REMEMBER:
  AN EDUCATED POPULATION MEANS A PROPEROUS ECONOMY BECAUSE THE CITIZENS OF THE COUNTRY CAN READ AND WRITE AND ARE CONFIDENT TO BE ENTERPRENUERS.
  
  FOR GHANA AND AFRICAN COUNTRIES TO HAVE CHILDREN SELLING WARES ON THEIR HEADS RUNNING INBETWEEN CARS IS SUCH A DISGRACFUL SHAME AND EVIDENT OF SHEER INCOMPETENCES AGAIN, BY INCOMPETENT INEFFICIENT AND VISIONLESS LEADERS OF GHANA AND AFRICA! WHY DO AFRICAN LEADERS, MINISTERS, ECONOMIST CONTINUE TO BE SOOO INCOMPETENT? WHILE THE REST OF THE DEVELOPED WORLD PROVIDES FREE EDUCATION FOR UP TO 18 YRS OLDS AND HAVE BEEN DOING SO FOR DECADES OVER 50 YEARS AT LEAST!
  
  PRESIDENT MAHAMA MAKE FREE EDUCATION HAPPEN FOR CHILDREN UP TO 18YRS OF AGE AND ANYBODY WHO WANTS TO LEARN HOW TO READ AND WRITE! IT IS LONG OVERDUE! YOU LEADERS SHOULD STOP RUNNING AROUND LIKE HEADLESS CHICKENS! TALK IS CHEAP! MAKE PROGRESS HAPPEN FOR THESE CHILDREN THEY ARE OUR FUTURE!
  IT SHOULD BE AGAINST THE LAW FOR ANY GHANAIAN CHILD TO BE SEEN ON THE STREET SELLING ANTHING! PERIOD! OTHER COUNTRIES, TOURIST AND GHANAIANS ARE FRUSTRATED ABOUT THESE CHILDREN ON THE STREETS OF ACCRA AND AROUND THE COUNTRY SELLING STUFF! SOO MUCH POTENTIAL FOR THESE CHILDREN IF ONLY OLDER LEADERS WOULD PAVE THE WAY FOR THEM BY LETTING THEM GET A FREE EDUCATION! AFRICA HAS RESOURCES! AFRICA IS NOT POOR! AFRICA SHOULD STOP GETTING LOANS! WE JUST HAVE BAD LEADERS WITH NO VISION! HOW SAD IS THAT!WHERE IS GHANA'S INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION TO GENERATE MONEY! WHAT IS THE REVENUE OF OUR RESOURCES BEING USED FOR? WHY HAVENT THE ECONOMIST OF EACH REGIME IMPLEMENTED AN EFFICIENT TAXATION SYSTEM? WHY DO AFRICANS CONTINUE TO ACCEPT LOW STANDARDS OF EVERYTHING IN THEIR COUNTRIES AND MAKE EXCUSES WHY SYSTEMS CANNNOT BE IMPLEMENTED INSTEAD OF COMING UP WITH SOLOTIONS! GHANAIANS, AFRICANS WE HAVE TO CHANGE OUR MINDSET OTHERWISE THE REST OF THE WORLD IS PROGRESSIVING WHILE WE HAVE THE MOST RESOURCES AND NOW OIL BUT OUR GREED FOR THE FEW HAS MADE US A LAUGHING STOCK IN THE WORLD. SOO SAD. GHANAIANS AFRICANS LET'S PUT OUR THINKING CAPS ON FOR NECESSARY CHANGE AND AN OVERHAUL OF OUR ARCADE SYSTEMS! ENOUGH OF THIS NONSENSE OF INCOMPETENCE! WE CAN BRING CHANGE IF OUR LEADERS CHANGE THEIR ATTITUDES AND PRACTICE A TRULY TRANSPARENT DEMOCRATIC GOVERNANCE! GHANAIANS ARE NOW DEMANDING CHANGE BECAUSE THE NONSENSE OF LACK OF PROGRESS IS TOO MUCH! NO FREE EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN, BAD ROADS, NO PLANNING OF OUR ROADS AND NUMBERING OF STREEST DESPITE THERE BEING A DEPARTMENT OF TOWN PLANNING! WHERE ARE THE GHANAIAN CIVIL ENGINEERS?
  NO WATER, NO LIGHT, THE GORLE LEGON STICKS AND IT IS FULL OF OIL AND DEBRIS, KORLEBU A WHOLE TEACHING HOSPITAL HAS NO CONSTANT WATER. FILTHY LOOKING BUILDINGS IN KORLEBU AND THE WHOLE OF ACCRA AND ALL THE TOWNS AND SOOO CALLED CITIES IN GHANA! PROCESSING OF EVERYDAY NEEDED DOCUMENTS LIKE PASSPORTS, DRIVING LICENSE, LAND DOCUMENTS IS SOO CUMBERSOME AND TIRESOME! WHY? TOO MUCH OF THIS NONESENSE OF INCOMPETENCSE OF EVERY SYSTEM HAS TO STOP! WHAT IS THE POINT OF PRESIDENTS AND MINISTERS OF AFRICAN COUNTRIES HAVING GRDUTATES WITH DEGREES AND SOME WITH PHD'S YET YOU AFRICAN LEADERS ARE NOT DOING JACK! SOOOO DISGRACEFUL! GHANAIANS ARE FRUSTRATED AND AS AFRICANS THE INCOMPETENCE OF OTHER AFRICAN COUNTRIES AFFECTS US ALL! MAKE PROGRESS, CHANGE AND SOME CLASS AND SOPHISTICATION OF GHANA HAPPEN FAST! IT IS LONG OVERDUE!

  ILLEGAL SCALE ADJUSTMENT IS A DE-MOTIVATOR TO THE YOUTH IN COCOA FARMING. LBCs TO BLAME. THEY ARE USING PURCHASING CLERKS AS A TOOL TO CHEAT FARMERS

  GHANA CAN ONLY PRODUCE QUALITY SKILLED WORKFORCE WHEN THOSE WHO ARE BE ABSORBED AT THE VOCATIONAL AND TECHNICAL INSTITUTIONS DO FIRST POSSESS THE REQUISITE BASIC AND SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL CERITFICATES.
  
  STUDENTS WHO FAILED TO ACQUIRE THE BASIC AND SENIOR HIGH CERIFICATES,SHOULD BE SCHOOLED AGAIN TO GAIN THE REQUIRED CERIIFICATES BEFORE THEY ARE ADMITTED FOR APPRENTICESHIP EDUCATION AND TRAINING.
  
  THE GHANA MINISTRY OF EDUCATION NEED TO KNOW,NOWHERE IN THE DEVELOPED WORLD ARE PEOPLE TRAINED IN THE VOCATIONAL AND TECHNICAL TRADES IN SIX-NINE MONTHS AND FOR THEM QUALIFY TO RUN THEIR OWN WORKSHOPS.
  
  THIS IS TOTALLY WRONG AND WRONG.
  
  WHERE ARE WE STILL LIVING IN THE 2ist CENTURY.
  
  SAD WITHOIUT FURTHER COMMENTS.
  
  THE WORLD HAS CHANGED SINCE 1945, AND WE HAVE TO CHANGE TOO AND FOR US TO MEET THE IDEALS OF THE COMPETITIVE WORLD.
