According to Rocky Dawuni, the government shouldn’t be held responsible for the high levels of unemployment in the nation.
The well-known Ghanaian musician asserted that only efforts and help from the government could not end the unemployment situation.
He emphasized that unless the populace is capable of taking the initiative, the government shouldn’t shoulder the responsibility for the lack of high-caliber employment prospects for all of its citizens.
“The thing is that jobs are not necessarily the responsibility of the government. The government creates an enabling environment. The act of entrepreneurship is lacking if people are constantly waiting for the government. Even if the government creates jobs, how many jobs can one entity create to take care of the teeming number of youths?”
Rocky Dawuni, a Grammy nominee recommended that young people work in agriculture to reduce unemployment.
“All I am saying is that in the abundance of water, the fool is thirsty. Everybody is crying out for jobs whiles we have land. We need the know-how, and we need to increase the ability of training and equip young people with new ideas about farming, farming as a business, and new types of plants.”
