Japekrom (Brong Ahafo) 22 April 2002 – Mr Yaw Adjei-Duffuor, Deputy Brong Ahafo Regional Minister, on Saturday called on religious bodies and organisations to complement the efforts of the government in finding solutions to problems of the youth.
He explained that a major concern of the government was the welfare and socio-economic future of the youth. “Most of the youth are alienated from a stable family atmosphere and are restless, which leads them to misuse their leisure time,” he said.
Mr Adjei-Duffuor was speaking at the opening of the 36th annual conference of the Brong Ahafo Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana at Japekrom in the Jaman District of the Brong Ahafo Region.
A total of 120 delegates including pastors, catechists and members of the Regional Presbyterian Council are attending the six-day conference under the theme: “Advancing the Course of Christ in Change”.
The conference would take stock of activities of the Presbytery in the past year and plan to make a stronger impact in the socio-economic and political transformation of society.
