GOVERNANCE IS NOT WEIGHT LIFTING BUT COMPITENCE AND EXPERINCE. Maxwell Kofi Jumah

 

Governance is about experience and exposure to the reality of world economic growth and relations and not weight lifting or sporting activities. Maxwell Kofi Jumah, CEO of GIHOC Distilleries Company LTD.

This he said in relation to the recent reactions of the youths of the New Patriotic Party advocating for the elimination of most old people in major positions of both state and commercial enterprises.

In an interview with Accra based NEAT FM morning show, the former Asokwa Constituency Member of Parliament said,  

“I have served under the various post and handled obligations both in the country and abroad and with time, I have gained experience that aids me in decision making.”

“They are wrong to say we are old and should be put on the backburner to allow them, who are with little familiarity and capabilities to take over.”

Mr. Jumah said the Nana Addo government is a concoction of both old and young individuals and I entreat the youths calling for this action to acknowledge this and come again.

I urge them to rather respect and hit the books from the adults in position and stopover undermining their proficiency, acquaintance, and expertise.

Former Kumasi Mayor concluded that what youth group is calling for do not hold water but reasonably, they should be submissive and mug up from us the old ones in position then they can be in position one day to lead.
