The Chief Executive Officer of the National Youth Authority (NYA), Pius Enam Hadzide, has urged the youth to support the implementation of the Electronic Transfer Levy (E-Levy).
According to the former deputy Minister of Youth and Sports, doing so will go a long way to support the government’s YouStart initiative programme to help reduce youth unemployment in the country.
Speaking at a stakeholder engagement on the implementation of the YouStart programme implementation, Mr Hadzide emphasised the need for the youth to embrace the programme since it has come to stay for the creative and entrepreneurs.
“The process to leverage our creative and entrepreneurial spirit has been awakened and it must be embraced by us all.
“I also want to use the opportunity to thank the Parliament of Ghana for passing the E-Levy bill into law, the E- Levy Act.
“Because the E-Levy is one of the critical enablers of the YouStart initiative, and we are grateful that Parliament pass the E-Levy bill, and I want to encourage all of us to support the implementation of the E-Levy law,” he said.
