Nana Akufo I, Omankrado of Nyakrom Traditional Area, has called on the government to offer the necessary support to foreign investors to enable them create jobs and wealth for the unemployed in the society. Nana Akufo made the call at a dinner organised by the Executive Director of Children’s Future Life (CHIFULI), a Non Governmental Organisation at Agona Nyakrom. He said the government alone cannot find a solution to the huge unemployment problem facing the country and would therefore need foreign and local businessmen and women to support the economy. He said the economy of the country should be given a push by allowing genuine foreign nationals to bring their resources to help improve job creation in the society. He praised the Executive Director of CHIFULI, Mrs Otillie Ross, a German investor for establishing a vocational training institute at Nyakrom to train Junior and Senior High School leavers in the Agona West Municipality. Nana Akufo assured the Executive Director that the chiefs of Nyakrom are ever prepared to release land to any foreign investor eager to invest in the area. Ms Ross said her organisation has decided to plant trees at the roadside of Nyakrom, public places and schools to serve as windbreak and shades in the area. She expressed her concern about the alarming rate at which trees are being felled by selfish and unscrupulous persons. Mrs Ross called on the Parliament to come out with a law, which could stop the destruction of the forest in the country. Mrs Ross appealed to the Ministry of Education to assist private vocational and technical training institutes to enable them achieve their goals. Source: GNA/Ghana
