Chairman of the National Economic Dialogue Planning Committee, Dr.

Ishmael Yamson, has expressed deep concern over Ghana's economic challenges, stressing that poor governance and corruption have created a generation of disillusioned youth who see no future in the country.

Speaking at the opening of the National Economic Dialogue on Monday, March 3, 2025, Dr.

Yamson lamented the rise of what he termed "Generation Hustlers"-young people who have lost hope in Ghana's leadership and are eager to leave the country. "We have succeeded in creating a new generation of young people called Generation Hustlers, who have lost hope, respect, and confidence in their political leaders and their country and just want to leave Ghana behind them and relocate to foreign lands," he stated.
