Ghana creating more job seekers than job creators – Basil Anthony laments

Basil David Anthony, the Chief Executive Officer of Modern Floors Ghana, has expressed concern over the country’s education system, which he believes is churning out more job seekers than job creators.

In an exclusive interview on the Happy Morning Show with Sefah Danquah, Anthony emphasized the need for a paradigm shift towards empowering individuals to become job creators rather than solely job seekers.

We need more job creators, and we need to empower people to take up that challenge,” Anthony asserted.

Some of us need to be job creators,” he added.

With a population of over 30 million, he questioned the capacity of the government and private sectors to absorb the influx of job seekers entering the market annually.

Because there are only two sectors who can employ you, which is the government or public and the private.

How many people can the government employ in a country over 30 million population?” he posited.
