Zanetor speaks at second edition of Adabraka Youth forum
Member of Parliament for the Klottey Korle constituency, Dr. Zanetor Rawlings has cautioned the youth against all acts of selfishness in their endeavours.
According to her, selfishness is one of the reasons a lot of the youth are not employed.
Speaking at the second edition of the Adabraka Youth Forum, the MP stressed the need for the youth to desist from all acts that are likely to bring the image of the Adabraka community into disrepute.
“If we decide to be selfish about getting ahead and we get ahead and we are alone there is no point. If you are the only person at the top and your community is suffering then you haven’t achieved anything. So as you strive to be something else in future, maybe; a teacher, a sanitation inspector, working at the health directorate, an MCE, an MP, a doctor or whatever it is you want to do, you must think about it that it is for your family, it is for your community and it is for your country”.
She further urged the youth to support each other in their communities.
Dr. Agyeman-Rawlings who is really keen on issues relating to the youth and their development indicated that the youth must grow up respecting each other and shun away from the bad pictures that are painted from the actions of politicians.
“When a society does not have respect for one another, it falls apart. I think we’ve gotten to a stage in our lives as a country where we think because of politics, we should be behind the custom of showing respect to one another. That is a bad example to set for the upcoming generation.”
“Please don’t look at the bad examples you see in politics and copy them. You all know what is right and wrong. As you grow up, don’t leave it behind. Take it with you because if you carry that forward, no leader will do the wrong thing and think they can get away with it because you will not accept it,” she stated.
