Politicians have failed the youth

‘It’s So Crazy’ music maker, Joseph Mensah Ntim, aka JM, has disclosed that Ghanaian politicians have failed to create employment for its teeming youth.

The young Afro-pop artiste told BEATWAVES in a chat that the youth refrain from thinking that Ghanaian politicians have plans for them “but rather the politicians are using you to amass wealth for themselves.”

JM has mentioned that his ‘It’s So Crazy’ single educates the youth about Ghanaian politicians who are not interested in creating job opportunities for the youth but only are enjoying themselves at the expense of the youth and the poor taxpayer.

He claimed that politicians have misplaced priorities and are spending monies on luxurious activities when such funds could be used to create employment for the youth in their various communities, adding, “You must be careful because people are using you for their selfish interest. You constitute 65 percent of the population of this country, and I want you to know how important you are so you don’t allow them to use you.”

JM appealed to young people to use their God-given talents productively to help themselves and the country, adding that the youth have the gift of energy and must channel their energy into good use.

“I believe the time has come for us to tell the politicians the truth so that they could change from their bad ways before things get out of hand,” he reiterated.
