To empower local entrepreneurs and foster development, Kofi Amankwa Manu, Member of Parliament for Atwima Kwamoma, celebrated the successful implementation of his Bizbox Initiative.
This program is designed to equip young entrepreneurs with essential tools and skills and has received significant support through partnerships with the Ghana Enterprise Agency and the Mastercard Foundation.
During a recent event in his district, Hon. Manu emphasized the importance of the initiative, stating, “Clearly, we needed the tools to help them enter the wider world and apply what they’ve been taught.”
He noted that participants in the training sessions have received crucial resources to launch their businesses, with the hope that these ventures will not only sustain the individuals but also uplift their communities.
Expressing optimism for the future, he said, “It’s my prayer that God will bless whatever they are going to do so that their businesses benefit not only themselves but also their communities.”
As Ghana approaches the December 7 elections, Mr Manu highlighted the importance of peace and constructive participation in the democratic process. “Elections are about development. They are not about conflict,” he stated passionately. “We are voting for development. I urge every Ghanaian to remember that our focus should be on development, not causing harm or destruction.”
He concluded by urging citizens to prioritize peace, saying, “Every Ghanaian should go and cast your vote wherever you choose. I truly believe that these efforts will benefit the entire Ghanaian population, particularly Atwima Kwamoma. We must ensure a peaceful environment.”
Mr Manu’s commitment to entrepreneurship, development, and peace serves as a reminder that true progress lies not only in economic growth but also in the collective dedication to a stable and prosperous future for all.
