Dr. Ismael Yamson sees many young people planning to leave Ghana for better lives abroad. As Chairman of the 2025 National Economic Dialogue Planning Committee, he points to corruption and poor management as the main causes. Years of bad governance destroyed hope and created what he calls a generation of hustlers who see no future at home.

Yamson spoke Monday at the Accra International Conference Centre during the opening of a major economic meeting. The two-day event focuses on rebuilding Ghana through shared effort. Yamson believes most problems facing Ghana come from inside the country rather than outside forces.

He acknowledges that COVID-19, war between Russia and Ukraine, and worldwide economic troubles hurt Ghana. Yet he stresses that greed, corruption, and weak leadership across different governments caused deeper damage. These self-made problems harmed Ghana more than any foreign crisis ever could.

Despite these challenges, Yamson believes President John Dramani Mahama can guide Ghana toward a better future. He expressed confidence that Mahama brings both wisdom and courage to help the nation recover. Yamson feels Mahama stands ready to break from past mistakes and lead Ghana toward growth that helps all citizens, not just a select few.
