The Member of Parliament for Daffiama-Bussie-Issa Constituency, Hon Sebastian Sandaare, together with the constituency executives of the National Democratic Congress, yesterday, attended the Ghana National Dress Makers Association’s annual passing out of its newly trained dress makers.
He was there to appreciate the efforts of the gallant youth who completed a skill training program in dress making with their master craftsmen.
He used the opportunity to thank the constituents especially the dress makers Association for renewing his mandate as a Member of Parliament for the constituency.
He also encouraged the youth to consider skill training very critical as it provides direct and self employment.
He called on government and philanthropists to invest in skill training to empower the youth and assured all that the Skill Development Initiative he started, which is supporting many young ladies being trained as dress makers will be expanded and sustained.
He challenged those who passed out not to relent but work very hard to make their families proud.
