The Mamfehene, Osabarima Ansah Sasraku II, Chief of Mamfe in the Eastern Region is rolling out several interventions aimed at equipping the youth with various vocational skills.

With many youths solely pursuing elusive white-collar jobs, overlooking the potential benefits of skilled training for financial independence and personal growth, it's become imperative to underscore the relevance of skills training in today's society.

The chief's initiatives which include the provision of uniforms for deprived basic school children and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) as well as digital literacy, are aimed at equipping the beneficiaries with the tools needed to step out of their comfort zones and establish self-reliance.

The last Akwasidae marked by the chiefs and people of Mamfe offered the traditional authorities the opportunity to highlight various intended interventions in the lives of the youth.
