YEA denies GHS9 million turkey berries program

The Youth Employment Agency (YEA) has strongly denied claims that it allocated GHS9 million to a turkey berries production program. The agency asserts that no such program has ever existed or received funding from its budget.

This denial comes after circulating reports suggested a significant sum was used for the cultivation of the crop. The Director of Corporate Affairs at YEA, Suadique Musah, stated these claims are false and misleading. He confirmed that YEA has not started any program related to turkey berries production. No payments of this kind have been made.

The agency stressed its commitment to using public funds openly and correctly. All YEA programs and expenses are documented and can be checked. Misinformation, like the turkey berries claim, can cause the public to lose trust in government bodies. YEA has asked the public and media to check facts before sharing unverified reports. The agency remains focused on creating real job opportunities for young people across the country.
