On Wednesday, May 13th, I joined the For The Future (FTF) Organization for the FTF Impact Summit: Change Makers Dialogues as a speaker at the Swiss Ambassador’s residence in Ghana. Since 2016, FTF has been committed to transforming the lives of vulnerable children and young people by providing access to education, health support, life skills, and opportunities that empower them to thrive and become high achievers for life. On the occasion of their 10th anniversary, I congratulated the organization for its remarkable impact and encouraged more young people to get involved in driving change and shaping a brighter future.

The opening ceremony of the Youth Diplomacy Institute Model African Union (MAU) Conference took place yesterday at the Foreign Service Institute.

In my keynote address on the theme "Youth in Diplomacy: Shaping Africa’s Future Through Policy and Leadership," I emphasized the transformative power of collective action. I expressed my belief that Africa’s immense potential can be realized through the implementation of strong policies and effective leadership. Central to this vision is the active and immediate involvement of young people, noting that our future relies not just on the promises of tomorrow, but on the leadership we demonstrate today.

It was a joy to return to the Ahafo Region and engage with our Youth Organizers as part of our ongoing outreach with Regional Youth Wings across the country. Once again, I assured our Constituency Youth Organizers of the government's and the party's strong commitment to their well-being and development. I emphasized the importance of remaining dedicated to His Excellency John Dramani Mahama's agenda to reset Ghana and improve the lives of our people!
