Chief Executive Officer of the National Youth Authority (NYA), Osman Ayariga, has urged African nations to take a cue from Ghana’s thriving youth innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem.
Speaking at a panel discussion on Youth Innovation in Future Energy Technologies at the Youth Energy Summit (YES!) in Cape Town, South Africa, Ayariga said Ghana’s success in empowering young people is a model worth replicating across the continent.
In a Facebook post reflecting on his participation, he stated: “Ghana has created the enabling environment for youth innovators and entrepreneurs to thrive. The rest of the continent should emulate the success story of Ghana!”
Held under the theme “Tomorrow’s World”, the YES! Summit runs alongside the prestigious Africa Energy Forum.
It brings together youth leaders, energy experts, policymakers, and stakeholders to explore sustainable, youth-driven solutions for Africa’s energy future.
The summit is part of a broader effort to electrify the continent by involving 10% of Africa’s one billion people in the energy conversation.
It also aims to build a network of 100 million people by 2035, driving job creation, grassroots involvement, and cross-border knowledge exchange in Africa’s energy sector.
Osman Ayariga’s remarks positioned Ghana as a continental trailblazer, especially in aligning youth empowerment with Africa’s transition to renewable and sustainable energy sources.
His presence at the summit further reinforces Ghana’s commitment to nurturing homegrown talent and developing the next generation of African energy leaders.
