The Member of Parliament for Manhyia South in the Ashanti Region , Nana Agyei Baffuor Awuah, has issued a stirring challenge to over 35 apprentices who successfully completed the Manhyia South Shoemaking hub project.
The MP urged the graduates to make Ghana proud by utilizing the skills they have acquired to create high-quality products that can compete in the global market.
The Manhyia South Shoemaking hub project was initiated by the former Member of Parliament for the area, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, with the aim of alleviating unemployment among the youth in the constituency. The project is part of a broader vision to make the constituency a shoemaking hub in the country, nurturing talent and creating job opportunities for all.
During the launch of the project and graduation ceremony, Nana Agyei Baffuor Awuah suggested that Dichemso Block B be used as a shoemaking hub, providing a central location for the graduates to showcase their skills and produce high-quality products. The MP emphasized the importance of apprenticeship, noting that while education is key to development, apprenticeship is equally crucial in equipping individuals with practical skills that can help them secure decent jobs.
Support and Encouragement
Nana Agyei Baffuor Awuah appealed to the beneficiaries not to disappoint Manhyia South and its residents, who have high expectations of them. The MP promised to make every effort to support the project, ensuring that it succeeds meaningfully and makes a positive impact on the lives of the people in the constituency.
With the skills and knowledge acquired through the Manhyia South Shoemaking hub project, the graduates are well-positioned to make a meaningful contribution to the economy and improve their economic well-being.
The MP’s challenge to make Ghana proud is a call to action, encouraging the graduates to strive for excellence in their craft and produce high-quality products that can compete in the global market. With the right support and guidance, the future looks bright for the graduates and the constituency as a whole.
