Youth leader and activist, Kenneth Gyamerah has written an open letter to H.E. President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo- Addo.

Kenneth Gyamerah is well known for his patriotic nature, hence his frequent comments on national issues and his publications have been featured on many big platforms.

Today, he has written to our president and this is exactly what he said.

“On behalf of the youth of Ghana, I wish to congratulate you for your assumption as the 5th President of the 4th Republic.

The illustrious youth wish you God’s grace, wisdom and success in performing the important and responsible duties as the president of our motherland.

As Barack Obama said “Nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change”. Your Excellency, the youth of Ghana which constitutes about 75% rallied massively behind you because the previous government failed to understand the problem face by the youth which among others included unemployment and harsh economic environment that made it difficult to startup a business.

By the grace of God the voice of the people have been heard and the long awaited change is here, Indeed, His Excellency the youth of this country have spoken, which establishes and gives us hope for a new and expanded youth empowerment horizons to enable us realize our potentials as useful members of the Ghanaian society and have a strong belief that your government will deliver and respond to the needs of all Ghanaians irrespective of political affiliation, ethnicity and gender.
