Ghanaian businessman and Chancellor of the University of Cape Coast(UCC), Sir Sam Jonah, has expressed worry over the disregard for the application of mental resources in Ghana.
He explains that as a country, people bank their hopes and aspirations on divine intervention rather than being innovative and applying their mental resources.
Sam Jonah made this known in paper addressing Ghana's education system. "The mindset of dependency is pervasive.
Many Ghanaians believe that the solutions to financial, health, and societal problems lie not in application of mental resources nor hard work nor innovation but in prayer and divine intervention," he said.
