On October 3, 2022, the First Deputy Speaker of\u00a0Parliament, Joseph Osei-Owusu, stated that government was not responsible for the creation of jobs.<\/p>\n
According to him, it is government\u2019s responsibility to create an enabling environment for businesses to thrive to employ the teeming unemployed youth in the country.<\/p>\n
First Deputy Speaker of\u00a0Parliament, Joseph Osei-Owusu, has absolved government of the responsibility of creating jobs for the youth.<\/p>\n
According to the Member of\u00a0Parliament\u00a0for Bekwai, government\u2019s job is to create an enabling environment for businesses to thrive to employ the teeming youth of the country.<\/p>\n
Speaking in an exclusive interview on GH Today on GHOne TV, Osei-Owusu described the expectation of the government creating jobs as archaic.<\/p>\n
\u201cLook at our constitution and our structure, the days that government took responsibility for providing jobs are long gone. Now, the government\u2019s position is that I will provide the environment for you to create the jobs for yourselves so we should stop placing responsibility where it is not. A lot of the time we make people feel that it is government\u2019s duty to do this, do that so people don\u2019t do the things they can do for themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cI\u2019m leaving politics, I want to retire quietly and so I will now speak boldly about things that matter. If we are going to move forward, people must take responsibility for their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n
