Malik Basintale, the newly appointed Chief Executive Officer of the Youth Employment Agency (YEA), paid a courtesy call on His Royal Majesty, King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, the Ga Mantse, and members of the Ga Traditional Council.
Basintale’s visit to the Ga Mantse palace marks a significant step in fostering collaboration between the YEA and traditional leaders in Ghana. As the CEO of YEA, Basintale is committed to addressing youth unemployment in Ghana, and his meeting with the Ga Mantse is a testament to his dedication to engaging with key stakeholders.
President John Dramani Mahama recently appointed Basintale as the Acting CEO of YEA, succeeding Kofi Baah Agyepong, who resigned after two years of service. With his experience as the Deputy National Communications Officer of the National Democratic Congress, Basintale is well-equipped to lead the YEA in its mission to provide employment opportunities for Ghana’s youth.
The courtesy call on the Ga Mantse palace demonstrates Basintale’s willingness to work with traditional leaders and community stakeholders to drive youth employment initiatives. As he settles into his new role, Basintale’s engagement with the Ga Traditional Council is a positive indication of his commitment to collaborative leadership.
