In an inspiring televised address, Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum emphasized Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s vision to equip Ghanaian students with the skills needed to compete and thrive in the digital age. Recognizing the increasing demand for digital skills worldwide, Dr. Bawumia’s plan includes a renewed focus on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and ICT education, preparing students to take on jobs of the future and succeed in a rapidly evolving global landscape.
“Dr. Bawumia understands that the world is changing, and we cannot afford to leave our students behind. His educational policies are designed to develop their technological skills, ensuring that they are competitive on the global stage,” Dr. Adutwum said. Bawumia’s approach to integrating digital education is a stark contrast to Mahama’s policies, which lack a strong emphasis on technological advancement.
Through a commitment to digital education, Dr. Bawumia aims to bridge the skills gap, allowing Ghanaian students to succeed in fields like data science, programming, and cybersecurity. Dr. Adutwum noted that this focus on competitive skills will drive economic growth and reduce unemployment, as graduates will be better equipped to pursue high-demand careers.
By providing students with tools to succeed in the digital world, Bawumia’s vision promises to lift families out of poverty, offering a brighter future for Ghana’s youth.
