Author:-Joe.....
What do you expect from a nation which has a person like Akua Donkor as the adviser. Akua Donkor has openly said he advises Mahama and he listens. I am not sure which advisory role she is playing but any role in the absence of more intelligent, competent, learned, more qualified people to give this government an advice has led to the deteriorating condition in Ghana and the nation going backward since Mahama and NDC took over the reigns of government in Ghana. But time will tell.

This man has sold his soul for falsehood. Government policies that promote private enterprise and support entreprenuership are the bedrock for job growth. So the government has significant role to play in the job market.

My goodness. We do have really stupid people in Ghana. There are jobs and the graduates do not have the necessary skills. This is the most stupid statement. Why then are we training the graduates.

You are making a claim for the government to approve more sub- standard universities. I think you guys are dreaming. What an association. God help Ghana.

Fact: The whole populace, and I mean the whole populace of that God-forsaken country called Ghana is a nation of fools and imbeciles. Truth be told, Ghanaians are below animals. Henceforth, I will render maximum respect to my dog rather than a Ghanaian for 'he' can think better than this idiot, the son of a bitch that he is, and that moron called john mahama. Ghana, is a failed nation and it needs to be wiped out from the surface of this earth.

What sort of skills and expertise do you have. 99% of graduates in Ghana are accountants, there's no graduates with technical or technological skills. In fact, most of this jobs are taken by foreigners. We don't want to use our brains create and invent, all we want is white colour jobs. If we start create something and built industries to provide employment

This
r. Odame and his so-called private universities association are good for nothing and blocked-headed people.You mean the new graduates lack the skills needed to get jobs.Who should give them the said skills.If your universities cannot instill the knowledge and the skills these students need during their four year study then shut down all your universities because they are useless.Again ,where is the capital need to start the business you are talking about.Mr. president, you seem to be out of touch of the current issues in Ghana or you are engaged in dirty politics.With the hostile economic climate and corruption, how can these new graduates thrive in the country.By the way my son graduated from one of the public universities and has been looking for one of those jobs you are talking about.please, furnish me with their contacts so I can help my innocent son get a job.

Spot on, Mr Odame.

One sensible Ghanaian talking.

Let all those unemployed graduates learn from him, and not engage on futile demonstrations.

They r not serious. Which private institutionin Ghana is aautonomous in this country to issue its own cert? How many??? They talk too much as if their students never had their basic and second cycle education in Ghana. Even the most developed countries there r still problems with unemployment. They talk too much. Its time to respect our public universities who have been training doctors, teachers, and the rest in this country for years.....un employment in our country is a problem and even those in private universities suffer most.
