THE MEMBER of Parliament for<br />
North Tongu in the Volta Region,<br />
Mr Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa,<br />
has announced that he, together<br />
with the traditional leadership of<br />
his constituency, has received a communication<br />
that a textile manufacturing company to<br />
be opened at Dawa will offer about 2000 jobs<br />
to the youth in the constituency.<br />
He said “after our interaction and they<br />
have decided that they are coming to set up a<br />
textile manufacturing company in the Dawa<br />
free zone enclave with an initial workforce of<br />
2000 workers. They have decided that they<br />
“I am appealing to<br />
the organisers [of the<br />
festival] to take on<br />
additional<br />
responsibilities. The<br />
issues to do with<br />
teenage pregnancy<br />
are not too good.<br />
• Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, MP for North Tongu<br />
(workers) will all come from North Tongu<br />
and the Mepe youth will surely be a priority.”<br />
The former Deputy Minister of Education,<br />
who was speaking at the launch of the<br />
festival at Holiday Inn in Accra on July 19, explained<br />
that “because the delegation was led<br />
by Togbe Kwasi Nego VI, Manklalo of Mepe<br />
Traditional Area, it makes it easier for the<br />
youth within the area to be employed at the<br />
factory that would be sewing nursing uniforms<br />
for nurses in the United States of America.<br />
“They were not too sure about the workforce<br />
to feed the factory if they were to set up,<br />
but after looking at Ghana, Togo and Ivory<br />
Coast, fortunately they have settled on Ghana<br />
and our youth are going to get jobs to do,” he<br />
added.<br />
