With 1.9 million Ghana ians unemployed, students nearing graduation express fear and uncertainty about their future, citing limited job opportunities, lack of training, and government's inaction.
Ella, a final-year student expressed fear about the high unemployment rate, stating that as a youth still in school, the lack of jobs and limited opportunities for internships and training are alarming, making it difficult for young people to gain practical experience and secure their future. "It's very scary and reduces your motivation as a person because if 1.9 million people are unemployed, idle, not receiving any formal skill to survive, you would ask yourself what am I going to do when I get out of school? Unemployment is really a big deal and it's very scary to think about it as a youth," she lamented.
As a final year student at the University of Ghana, Felix Abloh is worried about the scarce job opportunities, questioning how they can create a bright future with such limited options. "The reality of being among 1.9 million unemployed Ghanaians is unsettling. Will our voices be heard, and will meaningful opportunities be created for us?"
