In an article sighted by GhanaWeb, Alhaji Seidu Agongo pointed out that entrepreneurship, when well harnessed along with investments in productive ventures, can solve a lot of the nation’s teething problems for growth and ingenuity. “Our family system is still strong and that increases the interdependency ratio. Alhaji Agongo, who runs a consortium of businesses, explained that entrepreneurs can also serve as a source of relief to the government as they are able to create employment avenues and make contributions towards domestic revenue generation. “To do that we must prioritise rural/community entrepreneurship, sow and nurture the spirit of business ownership in the youth and purge ourselves of the political business cycle that emanates from the petty tagging of entrepreneurs with political parties.”
