Vice President Opoku-Agyemang champions education and entrepreneurship in Ho tour

Vice President Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang has spent three days in Ho, showcasing a leadership approach marked by engagement and practical action. Her visits included celebrations with teachers, a festival appearance, and a speech to young entrepreneurs—each event reinforcing themes of resilience and national progress.

At the Asogli Teza Yam Festival, the Vice President drew parallels between the yam's growth and the values of hard work and community. She used the occasion to highlight how collective effort strengthens society.

The following day, she addressed educators at the Ghana Teacher Prize celebrations. Here, she praised their work as foundational to the country's future. Two new initiatives were announced: the *Teacher Dabrɛ* programme and a forthcoming Digital Training Programme aimed at modernising teaching skills. She also urged the teaching profession to uphold discipline, integrity, and mutual respect. Her final stop was the University of Ghana, where she spoke to entrepreneurs involved in the *Adwumawura Programme*. Launched under former President John Dramani Mahama, the scheme now supports 10,000 young business owners—far exceeding its initial intake of 600 from 1,200 applicants. The Vice President stressed that success in enterprise demands focus, discipline, and perseverance. Throughout her visits, she linked these efforts to broader government programmes like *Feed Ghana* and *Nkoko Nkitsinkitsi*, which aim to revitalise agriculture and restore dignity to farming communities. Her style—rooted in listening, celebrating achievements, and setting challenges—stood out as both grounded and forward-looking.

The Vice President's three-day tour underscored her commitment to education, entrepreneurship, and agricultural revival. By announcing new teacher training programmes and reinforcing support for young businesses, the government's plans now move from policy to visible action. Her approach, free of grandstanding, has set a clear tone for leadership in the months ahead.
