In a recent interview with Adil Fuseini on Home Radio 99.7FM, Abu Kansangbata called on the Akufo-Addo Bawumia government to heed the lessons from the ongoing Kenyan protests to prevent controversial and perennial demonstrations from the Ghanaian youth and citizens.

According to the former Deputy Upper West Regional Minister, he said Kenya's situation should serve as a chronic study to the government of Ghana and other African countries.

He emphasised that it its time for politicians to be more responsible, assertive, humble, and honest to their people.

The government of Ghana should respect public opinion to enable them to address the gravity of the unemployment situation in the country, he noted.

Abu Kansangbata highlighted the socio-economic issues that have fueled the Kenyan protests, including high unemployment rates, inflation, and perceived government corruption.

He warned that Ghana could face similar challenges if the government does not take proactive measures to address the concerns of its citizens.

"Kenya's current situation should serve as a stark warning to us," Hon.Abu K. Kansangbata stated. "The frustration and anger we are witnessing in Kenya stem from a government that has ignored the needs and voices of its people for too long. We cannot afford to make the same mistakes here in Ghana."

During the interview, he also touched on specific areas where he believes the government has fallen short in many areas including, the high inflation rate, and the depreciation of the cedi including healthcare, education, and infrastructure development.

Abu Kansangbata urged the Akufo-Addo Bawumia administration to prioritize these sectors to improve the quality of life for all Ghanaians.

He also called for greater transparency and accountability from government officials, stressing that these values are essential for building trust between the government and the populace. "Transparency and accountability are not optional; they are the bedrock of a healthy democracy. Our leaders must be open with the people about how resources are being used and ensure that corruption is rooted out at all levels."

Abu Kansangbata further explains that the current situation in Kenya is a potential indicator that he fears the youth in some parts of the African Continent could emulate in the fight for their democratic rights.

"The organic nature of the demonstrations has nothing to do with politics. However, the youth are not happy with the current economic challenges, including high inflation rate, high unemployment rate, exchange rate, interest rate, frequent power outages, inadequate health service, and poor educational conditions,” Abu Kansangbata said.
