‘Watch+Bawumia+Kayayei’s+First+Cohort+Graduate The ‘Watch+Bawumia+Kayayei’ initiative, launched in 2021 by Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has reached a significant milestone with the graduation of its first cohort of beneficiaries. The initiative, aimed at empowering and assisting female headporters (kayayei) in Ghana, has provided over 1,000 young women with vocational training and financial support. The first graduating class consists of 250 students who have completed training in various skills, including catering, hairdressing, fashion design, and welding. Speaking at the graduation ceremony, Vice President Bawumia expressed his delight at the progress made by the program and reiterated his government’s commitment to supporting the kayayei community. He stated, “We believe that with the right skills and opportunities, these young women can become self-reliant and contribute meaningfully to society.” The graduates thanked the government and the initiative’s partners for their support. One of the graduates, Amina Mohammed, shared her inspiring story. “Before this program, I had no hope for a better future. I was carrying heavy loads on my head every day just to make ends meet. But now, thanks to the ‘Watch+Bawumia+Kayayei’ initiative, I have acquired valuable skills that will enable me to start my own business and provide a better life for my family.” The graduation ceremony was attended by government officials, representatives from the private sector, and members of the kayayei community. The event marked a significant step forward in the effort to address the challenges faced by kayayei and promote their socio-economic empowerment.This HTML code defines a webpage structure with various elements and content.
