The Youth In Ghana Are Just Not Happy

From the times of yesteryear, the youth of Ghana has always been calm, and have turned a blind eye to such countless economic issues affecting them, paying little mind to so many factors. Perhaps, this is the reason others consider them to be overly gentle and unconcerned.

But this time, the youth have turned another leaf, and have for at some point now, been challenging the government of Ghana to improve the ‘perishing’ economy. This campaign began via online media after huge loads of the youth saw a significant cost of living, corruption, higher taxes, fuel increase, joblessness, social injustice, nepotism, bad roads, and low wages and salaries.

The ‘cry’ steadily moved into an overall campaign asking the government of Ghana to fix the country, hence #Fixthecountry. But the ruling government had an alternate point of view about this entire #Fixthecountry mission or dissent by the youth.

The government is as yet putting forth a valiant effort to fix the nation as said by the citizens.
