President John Dramani Mahama has appointed Malik Basintale as the Acting Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Youth Employment Agency (YEA), effective January 27, 2025.

This announcement follows the resignation of Kofi Baah Agyepong, the outgoing CEO, who steps down on January 24, 2025, due to personal commitments. In his resignation letter to President Mahama, Agyepong expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to lead the agency, calling his tenure “an honour and a privilege.”

Agyepong, who has led YEA for the past two years, voiced confidence in the agency’s continued success and wished President Mahama well in his leadership of the nation.

Basintale, a prominent figure in Ghana’s political sphere, takes over the role at a pivotal moment for the agency, which is dedicated to creating job opportunities for Ghana’s youth.
