The joblessness, the homelessness of the youth cannot be taken lightly – Bagbin

Regarding the nation’s rising youth unemployment rate, Speaker of the Parliament Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin has voiced grave worries.

The current rates of adolescent homelessness and unemployment, he cautioned, might have serious and even dangerous consequences in the upcoming elections.

Bagbin emphasized the necessity of swift and decisive action by the political leadership to solve this urgent issue in his speech to Parliament on Wednesday.

“The joblessness, the homelessness and the hopelessness of the youth cannot be taken lightly. We must act together and now to prevent a journey to calamity or to a journey of no return.”

“The public does not give a dime what goes on in between the starting together and finishing together. With these, it is clear that as representatives of the people we have a significant amount of work ahead of us and I therefore urge all members to patronise the work and ensure that we make progress on these important matters,” Bagbin said.
