Kariz Enterprise holds maiden youth enterprise seminar



 As part of measures to curb unemployment challenges in Ghana, Kariz Enterprise, a non-governmental organization committed to ending poverty in Ghana has organized its maiden seminar to sensitize, educate and inculcate the spirit of entrepreneurship in the youth. 
 The 1-day sensitization forum dubbed “Youth Enterprise Seminar & Drama, 2016 which saw over 100 youth across the country in attendance took place in Accra at the GNAT hall on Saturday, August 27, 2016 on the theme: “Arise for Youth Enterprise Development in Ghana “.

Some of the topics participants were taken through include; Youth Enterprise, its impact on the National Economy, Avenues of Youth Enterprise, Need for Higher Education (Learning), Education and Youth Enterprise in addition to showcase of a drama “fowl story from an inspirational book titled  Bawa Ali(novel), authored by Kudzo Ahiabli Edem, the Chief Executive Officer of Kariz Enterprise.

Explaining the rationale behind the initiative in an interview, CEO of Kariz Enterprise,Mr. Kudzo Edem Ahiabli bemoaned the rate at which majority of Ghanaian youth are wallowing in abject poverty in recent time due to lack of jobs, a situation he believes gov’t is doing his part  but can’t solely handle without the support of the private sector .

According to him, youth enterprise is the only way to solve Ghana’s youth employment issues thereby creating more jobs for youth and the future generations.

“13 years of writing Bawa Ali Novel has taught me one fundamental lesson and that is, when we encourage or give ourselves the act of youth enterprise, we can create more jobs in the overflow and to achieve this fate, we need to give particular attention to technical and entrepreneurial training for youths” said the young entrepreneur Edem Ahiabli”.

Young entrepreneur, an author and a songwriter,Kudzo Edem Ahiabli who is passionate of changing the world by bringing life, hope and glory  to many children around the country and beyond through his innovate ideas in the near future  shared his frustration about the Ghanaian youth employment situation: “I used to think that there are already-made jobs for all school leavers but I realized that it was actually true in the days of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah hence many people today end up in frustration when joblessness sets in”.

Kudzo has therefore challenged all youth in Ghana especially those in schools to endeavor to think out of the box and create for themselves a business(s) that will sustain them throughout entire lifetime instead of relying on govt for jobs.

The event was organized by Karim Enterprise and supported by Royal Dove Aluminum Systems, Ahiabli Furniture Works and Yiedie Organization.

Photo of a man with amazingly ‘super head’ causes a stir on social media

Image
Many eyes have seen it but are yet to believe. To those who are convinced that God's creature exits on earth with such a weird shape of head have been left totally flabbergasted and worried too.That is human nature; doubting Thomases everywhere. A man whose photo has been making rounds on social media platforms has been the one in the centre of a huge controversy that rendered onlookers astounded and divided. The photograph in question has really created a scene that is of comic relief and over-sensational. The problem per se is not about his facial appearance but borders specifically on the 'caricature' shape of his head coupled with his jaw-jutting chin which has become the point of attraction at all cost.  It appears no amount of words could best describe the shape of his 'Hill-Valley-Hill Head' which looks very sparkling without hairs on it.  But some social media users who caught sight of the photograph have been reacting with varying
