The gesture among others will help young graduates to learn a few more skills, generate interest that will get them in the long run to choose agriculture as a means of providing an income and becoming successful individuals," he said. 
Investing in people especially the youth according to him, was a sure way to systematically and sustainably flee the youth from exerting their youthfulness into unproductive and illegal ventures.
He cautioned: "If we do not in good time fashion out effective, sustainable programmes for these vibrant, creative young people to work, we could be having a major social problem on our hands, a potentially explosive situation with dire consequences reaching beyond Africa." 
He expressed concern about Ghana’s huge food import bill, particularly in relation to foods like rice which can be produced in Ghana abundantly.

 He questioned why government has not put in place effective policies over the years to deal with the country’s food production deficit and questioned the rationale of government importing quantities of rice yearly when the country can produce in abundance.
He charged the beneficiaries to put the items to good use  and appealed to all the traditional leaders to be innovative and proactive in addressing concerns of the youth especially on jobs.

How could you fall for a lady with such long fingers nails? – Kennedy Agyapong to Kan Dapaah

How could you fall for a lady with such long fingers nails? – Kennedy Agyapong to Kan Dapaah Member of Parliament of Assin Central Kennedy Agyapong is of the view that Albert Kan Dapaah should not be crucified over the amorous video with a lady identified as Chantelle Kujawu but is wondering how the National Security minister could fall for a lady with long and scary finger nails.
