President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on Tuesday asked winners of the 2019 edition of the Presidential Pitch competition to leverage the programme to create jobs for others to enter the world of work and business.

He told them that they ought to be instruments for job creation "because that is what at the end of the day, entrepreneurial ability should lead to".

The President made the call when he presented cheques to the winners of the competition at the Jubilee House in Accra.

The Presidential Pitch, an initiative of the Business Development Ministry, which started in 2018, is a competition of business concepts in which young people below 35 years who have impactful, innovative, scalable and viable ideas present their business plans to vie for government support.
