In a gesture of unwavering commitment to empowering the youth of Amenfi West, Hon. Ignatius Kwasi Afrifa recently donated sewing machines and a substantial sum of money to recent apprenticeship graduates in Mumuni. The presentation, held on October 25th, 2024, saw Thomas Andoh, the Constituency Treasurer, and Nana Kwadwo representing Hon. Afrifa in this impactful initiative.
This donation aligns perfectly with Hon. Afrifa’s fourth agenda item within his ten-point plan for the development of Amenfi West. He has pledged to establish comprehensive training schemes aimed at fostering entrepreneurship among the youth in the district. These schemes specifically target areas such as responsible and sustainable mining, apprenticeship programs, and the growth of artisanal small businesses.
This latest act of generosity builds upon a history of Hon. Afrifa’s dedication to promoting entrepreneurship and skills development in Amenfi West. On December 28th, 2023, the Tailors and Seamstresses Association at Samreboi presented Hon. Afrifa with a well-deserved citation, recognizing his instrumental role in creating opportunities for skills development and fostering a vibrant entrepreneurial spirit within the community.
This recent donation of sewing machines, coupled with the financial assistance provided, represents a tangible step towards empowering the graduates to establish their own businesses and contribute to the economic prosperity of Amenfi West. It is a testament to Hon. Afrifa’s commitment to supporting the youth and creating sustainable pathways to success for the future of the district.
