The progress, and well being of the universe depends largely on two things, namely: able brains and able bodies. We the youth of Ghana, bless God to be endowed with able bodies and able brains, and on this day, we are glad to join the youth of Africa and the world to celebrate the International Youth day.
This year the celebration is under the theme Youth Civic Engagement, a main goal of the United Nations System-Wide Action Plan on Youth (Youth-SWAP), which according to the United Nations, seek to promote young people’s effective inclusion in civic engagements at all levels. The Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA) of the UN posits that there has been recent increasing attention and policy and programming focus on youth civic engagement by governments, UN entities, regional and multilateral organizations, CSOs, youth and researchers.
In light of this we the students of Ghana praise the National Youth Authority for the establishment of the National Youth Policy Implementation Oversight Committee (NYPIOC), it is our hope that the committee will not become a white elephant but will work to better the lots of the youth of mother Ghana.
Also, we implore the Minister for Youth and Sports to kindly focus on the needs of young people in the country instead of the over concentration on Sports to the painful neglect of the Youth of Ghana.
Finally, we urge all the youth of Ghana to ensure that we contribute our quota to national development by performing our civic responsibilities as we urge government and other stakeholders to involve the youth in setting, planning, and executing the National development agenda.
Long Live the United Nations
Long Live Ghana
Long Live the youth of Ghana
And Long live Student Activism in Ghana
