She challenged the youthful participants to move beyond mere excitement and commit themselves fully to intensive training.
”I am calling on every young person here to take serious advantage of this opportunity,” Minister Kruah stated. “You must prepare yourselves now so that when job opportunities arise, you are not just applicants, but qualified professionals ready to compete.
The Minister extended her profound gratitude to the Rethink Tech Foundation for selecting Zwedru as a hub for this gracious opportunity.
She described the initiative as a vital pillar in the government’s agenda for youth empowerment and urged the foundation to expand its reach.
