During his tour of the Greater Accra Region, Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia, the Vice President of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), announced plans to establish an open University aimed at reducing unemployment.
He assured the clergy in Tema that a committee had already been formed prior to the elections to evaluate the feasibility of this initiative, which is expected to train more than 1 million Ghanaian youth.
The university will be inclusive, welcoming even those without formal qualifications, providing training in TVET and ICT to prepare individuals for opportunities in the digital sector both locally and internationally.
Dr. Bawumia also expressed concern about the trend of successive governments neglecting inherited projects, and pledged to foster collaboration among all political parties to develop a national development plan that ensures the continuity of state initiatives.
