The award event was held in the presence of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, who indicated that for young people to be in a position to drive the country to where it ought to be, they must be equipped, trained, supported, and put on a level playing field.

President Akufo-Addo made the assertion at the Head of State Gold Award ceremony at the Jubilee House on Monday, where some young Ghanaians were honoured with the Head of State Gold Award.

He expressed the need for the country to create avenues that would enable young people to explore, innovate, and use creative ways to solve societal problems.

The President urged the youth to explore, dream, and discover their enormous talents for the development of societies and the nations at large.

The award scheme is to equip and transform the lives of young people to be successful in life, by giving them a platform to discover and develop themselves through volunteerism, skills development, adventurous journeys and physical and recreational activities.
