In a candid interview on Starr 103.5 FM's "The Zone" with media personality Edem Farrie, legendary sports journalist Dan Kwaku Yeboah offered a scathing critique of Ghana's youth empowerment initiatives, describing them as largely ineffective and often serving as vehicles for corruption. When asked about governmental initiatives or policies that have improved the lives of participants over his 20 years in broadcasting, Yeboah didn't mince words. "Honestly, when it comes to human resource development, I think we have not done enough as a country," he stated. "In most cases, the ministries responsible for these human resource developments want to organize a few days of seminars and usually pocket the money," he added. Dan Kwaku Yeboah highlighted a recurring pattern where substantial funds are allocated for youth programs, especially near elections, but the intended beneficiaries rarely see the benefits. "We don't really get the benefits that we're supposed to derive from these programs," he explained. "Usually, the undertones and intentions are to line a few pockets." He concluded that while a few initiatives benefit some, we can do better overall. When asked what he would do differently if in a position of power, Yeboah emphasized the potential of sports as a job creation tool for youth. He criticized the current approach, where initiatives are announced without providing necessary resources, including funding.
