President and Founder of the Afro-Arab Group of Companies, Alhaji Salamu Amadu is set to host the flagbearers of Ghana's leading political parties for the upcoming International Youth Day on August 12, 2024.
Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), and Former President John Mahama, the flagbearer for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), will join the Zongo Youth Ambassador for Peace and Development in this significant event.
"The Zongo youth will have the opportunity to meet face-to-face with His Excellency President John Dramani Mahama, NDC Presidential Candidate, and His Excellency Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, NPP Presidential Candidate," Ambassador Amadu announced.
The plight of Zongo communities is marked by challenges such as unemployment, drug abuse, poor housing conditions, inadequate sanitation, lack of social amenities, insufficient schools, and poor road infrastructure. Above all, there is a pressing need for substantial investment to foster self-sufficiency through entrepreneurship.
Alhaji Salamu Amadu, who holds several ambassadorial roles including One Young World Ambassador, Africa Assembly for Peace Ambassador, and Zarbarma Youth Ambassador, made history with the maiden edition of the International Youth Day celebrations.
This event gathered youth from Zongo communities across the country at the Sheikh Dr. Nuhu Osman Sharubutu Hall at the National Mosque in Kanda-Accra.
International Youth Day, celebrated annually on August 12, was established by the United Nations to bring youth issues to the attention of the international community and to celebrate the potential of youth as partners in today’s global society.
The day is aimed at promoting ways to engage the youth in becoming more actively involved in making positive contributions to their communities.
The theme for International Youth Day 2024 focuses on fostering inclusive and sustainable development by addressing the challenges faced by young people worldwide.
This version provides a clear, organized summary of the upcoming event, highlights the importance of International Youth Day, and emphasizes the significant contributions of Alhaji Salamu Amadu to his community
