President Mahama has handed over the report on the operations of the Ghana Youth Employment and Entrepreneurial Development Agency (GYEEDA) to a team led by his senior advisor, P. V. Obeng, for review.
The Flagstaff House has confirmed that the team, which started work last week, is reviewing the Committee�s findings, conclusions and recommendations.
They are expected to advise the President in line with the Committee�s recommendations and government�s own stated plans to review the Program.
An inter-ministerial committee investigated the activities of the Agency after reports of alleged misappropriation of funds meant for running GYEEDA.
President Mahama promised a radical review and restructuring of GYEEDA when the report was submitted about three weeks ago.
Government in March announced in the 2013 Budget Statement, a freeze on all new modules and plans to review the operations of the GYEEDA, which was formerly the National Youth Employment Program.
