Minister for Youth and Sports, Isacc K. Asiamah, has met with the management of the National Youth and Authority (NYA).
The meeting held on Friday, September 6, 2019, was focused on the dismissal of the CEO of the NYA Emmanuel Asigri together with his two deputies.
The CEOs were sacked by President Nana Akufo-Addo apparently due to alleged procurement malpractices.
Mr Asiamah in his address urged the management to work effortlessly in the interest of the youth and the country.
He urged management to offer the needed support to the new Ag. CEO of the Authority.
He further encouraged the management to desist from any sort of misconduct. Adding that, government is still committed to the achievement of the corporate vision, mission and mandate of the Authority.
Acting CEO of the NYA, Emmanuel Anama-Mensah expressed gratitude to the Minister.
He assured the Authority will work in the interest of the youth of Ghana.

MANY CORRUPTION HAD OCCURRED WITHOUT DETECTION. THE FACT THAT CORRUPTIONS IN THE MINISTRY WERE DETECTED GIVES INDICATION TO VIGILANCE WITHIN THE MINISTRY. THE MINISTER CAME TO THE MINISTRY TO MEET MANY OF THE STAFF AT WORK. HE CANNOT JUST DISMISS THEM. THE BEST HE CAN DO IS TO BE VIGILANT AND DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY. I THINK THE DISMISSAL OF THE NYA BOSS IS NOT ENOUGH. THERE SHOULD BE FURTHER INVESTIGATION TO ESTABLISH PRECISELY THE COST OF HIS CORRUPTION AND IF REQUIRED BE PROSECUTED TO PAY FOR ANY LOSS CAUSED TO THE STATE.
this man has no capacity to be the head of a ministry; all departments under his jurisdiction is bedeviled with corruption. He the minister himself couldn't do proper account of monies handed him at the just ended AFCON where the black stars of Ghana recorded its worse performance ever. THIS IS A QUESTION OF WHO WATCHES OVER THE WATCHMAN. HIS REMOVAL FROM POST IS LONG OVERDUE.
