The three shared their experiences on Springboard, Your Virtual University on the road edition with host, Rev. Albert Ocran.

He emphasized that collaboration and discipline are essential for sustainable growth, noting that “no artist thrives alone” and that “with the right structure and mindset, poetry and art can provide a fulfilling and decent livelihood.” Rhyme Sonny also highlighted the importance of confidence in one’s identity. “Black identity is not a burden but a mark of beauty, resilience, and purpose,” he said.

Atarrah Ghana Empowers Widows through Baobab Value Addition in Upper East

Atarrah Ghana Limited, an agribusiness venture is empowering widows and rural women in Ghana’s Upper East Region through value addition in the baobab industry, promoting sustainable livelihoods and the conservation of indigenous tree species. Speaking on Springboard Hangout with Comfort Ocran during the Springboard Road Show 2025 stop in the Upper East Region, the Managing Director of Atarrah Ghana, Ms. Fati, said the initiative evolved from the Widows and Orphans Movement, a nonprofit founded by her mother to help widows earn dignified incomes through productive work rather than dependence on donations. “In 2013, my mother asked me to help with the project. We were always begging for money to do good, and I thought we could create something that allows people to work for their money. That’s how we started Atarrah Ghana,” she said. She explained that Atarrah Ghana, headquartered in the Talensi District, operates within the baobab value chain, processing the indigenous tree’s seeds into cold-pressed oil for cosmetic and industrial use. Ms. Fati noted that baobab trees are abundant in the Upper East Region and hold deep cultural significance as symbols of protection and heritage. Ms. Fati said the company produces baobab oil through natural processing methods and ensures that no part of the tree goes to waste. The by-products are converted into animal feed, supporting poultry and livestock farmers, particularly during the dry season. “We produce sustainably. We don’t have any waste product in this factory,” she stated. She further revealed that beyond baobab oil, Atarrah Ghana also processes neem, sesame, moringa, and pawpaw oils, as well as black soap made from baobab and shea butter. The company trains women in shea butter processing and provides market access without competing with their businesses. “We exist because of the women, so whatever they want to do is what we will do. When we compete with one another, we collapse businesses. We all lose out,” Ms. Fati said. Accoprding to Ms. Fati, currently, the factory processes about 15 tons of baobab seeds annually and plans to expand its warehouse capacity fivefold in the coming year. The company is also piloting baobab tree planting initiatives to ensure sustainability and preserve the tree population for future generations. “We want to tell the story of the women so that people can associate with it. We are also planting baobab trees to secure the future of the industry. People say it takes 30 years to harvest, but we are willing to pilot grafting and other innovations to shorten that period,” she added. She urged young people to look beyond challenges and identify opportunities within their local environments. “There’s a lot of space. We just need to think outside the box and look within our environment. If we make things easier for industries, we will see the full potential of our people,” she said.

Okyeame Kwame and Nana Asaase Urge Truth and Cultural Identity as Springboard, Your Virtual University Marks 17th Anniversary.

Musician Okyeame Kwame and poet Nana Asaase have called on young people to uphold truth, creativity, and cultural identity as foundations for lasting success. The two shared their insights on Springboard, Your Virtual University during the 17th-anniversary edition. According to Okyeame Kwame, staying true to personal values has sustained his career across generations. “There are songs that I have created because of trends that died with the trends, but truth never passes. When I create from a place of truth, it stands the test of time,” he said. He noted that continuous learning has helped him reinvent himself, explaining that his studies in linguistics, marketing, and public relations have strengthened his craft. “Whenever I felt my work was becoming stale, I went back to learn. With new knowledge comes new content,” he added. The award-winning artist also highlighted partnership, collaboration, and humility as keys to progress, and shared how dyslexia shaped his growth. “Don’t pray against problems. They happen for you, not to you,” he told the audience. He further emphasized empathy in parenting, adding that “children learn more from what we do than what we say.” Poet and pastor Nana Asaase urged young creatives to remain consistent and adaptable in their work. “Change is the only dynamic constant. I have not stopped reading, writing, or meditating. Consistency produces results,” he said. He underscored cultural relevance as central to his craft, explaining that he conducts audience research before every performance to understand who will be present, their background, and preferred language. “Before entering a room, know who will be there, what language they speak, and how they think. Cultural relevance helps you speak to people’s souls,” he said. Reflecting on his decision to pursue poetry full-time, Nana Asaase said faith led him to preserve Ghana’s cultural identity. “Someone had to hold the cultural gates. Without our identity, we are lost,” he stated. The 17th-anniversary edition of Springboard, Your Virtual University celebrates nearly two decades of mentoring and inspiring young people through conversations with leaders across business, arts, and personal development.

Hights Enterprise Empowers 2,000 Women through Agric Value Addition in Upper East Region

Hights Enterprise Limited, an agribusiness, is transforming agricultural livelihoods in Ghana’s Upper East Region through value addition, women empowerment, and sustainable agribusiness practices, according to its Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Matthew Akayeti Naamlebna. Speaking on Springboard Hangout with Comfort Ocran during the launch of the Springboard Road Show 2025 in Bolgatanga, Naamlebna said the idea for Hights Enterprise was inspired by his work with women farmer groups in rural communities. “I realized that supporting women only to produce raw materials was not enough. When you add value to crops, you create jobs and make a real impact,” he said. The trained finance professional, Naamlebna explained that Hights Enterprise was established to lead in value addition within the region’s agriculture sector. “The company focuses mainly on the edible oil value chain, producing cold-pressed groundnut, sesame, and baobab oils sourced from local farmers,” he added. He said the oils are produced using natural methods and have become popular among diverse consumer groups in Ghana. Hights Enterprise is certified by the Food and Drugs Authority and is in the process of securing additional certification from the Ghana Standards Authority. Beyond oils, the company also processes baobab and hibiscus powders, as well as smoked guinea fowl, all made from locally sourced raw materials. “We started with 500 women farmers and have grown to 2,000 across the Upper East and Northeast regions,” Naamlebna said. Through partnerships with the GIZ Invest for Jobs initiative, Cosmos Innovation, and the Mastercard Foundation’s Bridging Agriculture Program, Hights Enterprise has received capacity-building and equipment support to strengthen its operations. Naamlebna explained that the women farmers, mostly out-growers, benefit from training, cooperative registration, and access to guaranteed markets. “We offtake everything they produce, so they don’t have to worry about where to sell,” he emphasized. The company also promotes environmentally friendly practices by using by-products from processing to produce organic manure. It is currently exploring the development of a biogas project to reduce reliance on firewood and improve rural energy access. Looking ahead, Naamlebna shared plans to expand into large-scale processing and export within the next five years. “We want to be a major player in the oil value chain and in value addition for northern products. Adding value creates jobs and reduces post-harvest losses,” he stated. He encouraged young people to explore opportunities within agriculture. “We are surrounded by opportunities, but if you don’t think, you won’t realize them. Positive thinking attracts positive results,” he advised. About Springboard HangoutSpringboard Hangout is a funducative, youth-centered show hosted by Comfort Ocran.

Rashid Adams Turns 100 Cedis Coconut Venture into Growing Brand

Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Rash Coco Hut, Rashid Adams, has transformed a coconut-selling venture he started with just 100 Ghana cedis into a growing enterprise producing bottled coconut water and organic fruit juices in Accra. Speaking on Ghana Grows Edwuma, Mr. Adams shared how his journey began after several years working as a driver’s mate. “I’ve always had the dream to build something and give the youth job opportunities,” he said. “After careful thought, I settled on the coconut business. It’s something I’ve done from childhood.” He explained that innovation has been central to his brand’s growth. “I can boldly say that selling bottled coconut water was introduced by Rashid, and many people can testify to this,” he noted. “The way we’ve known coconut sales over the years has been the same, but I decided to make it more appealing through packaging.” Today, Rash Coco Hut, located at Adenta Housing Down in Accra, operates with a team of young workers who help supply coconuts to customers daily and at events. The business sources its coconuts from Sammens and sells over 3,000 coconuts weekly. Beyond coconut water, the entrepreneur has expanded into producing a range of organic juices, including sugarcane, tiger nut, and pineapple blends. “We now have about 14 different varieties of juices, all pure and organic with no additives,” he said. Mr. Adams attributed his success to perseverance and purpose. “Indeed, I started this business with just 100 Ghana cedis. I think I’m blessed with knowledge and resilience to persist even under the harshest conditions,” he said. To sustain production, Rash Coco Hut now operates its own coconut farm, ensuring a steady supply of raw materials. Mr. Adams emphasized his goal of creating employment for young people. “Most people complete school and say there are no jobs. I’ve committed myself to working hard so that through my business, others can find opportunities and stay off the streets,” he added. Through Rash Coco Hut, Rashid Adams continues to demonstrate how creativity and determination can turn a small idea into a sustainable source of livelihood and inspiration for Ghana’s youth.

Springboard Road Show 2025

Springboard Road Show 2025 – Chiefs, MCEs, and Youth Unite to Champion Agriculture and Enterprise

From the Upper West to the Ahafo and Bono East regions, the Springboard Road Show 2025 is igniting a wave of energy, hope, and empowerment among Ghana’s youth. The nationwide tour, running under the Ghana Grows programme, has drawn thousands of participants to its regional stops in Wa, Techiman, and Bechem, uniting traditional leaders, municipal executives, educators, and young entrepreneurs behind one shared vision, to transform agriculture, skills, and enterprise into engines of national growth. Now in its most ambitious edition yet, the Road Show is touring all 16 regions of Ghana, targeting over 500,000 young people, including young women and persons with disabilities. Each stop reflects the heartbeat of Ghana’s regions, distinct youth voices in one mission: to build a generation ready to grow. In the Upper West Region, the Road Show’s stop at the Wa Technical Institute was a blend of culture and purpose. Chiefs, opinion leaders, and the children of the esteemed Yaa Naa lent their presence in symbolic support of youth development. Alhaji Issah Nurah Danwanaa, Municipal Chief Executive for Wa, highlighted agriculture and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (ATVET) as critical levers for sustainable development. “Together, let us drive agriculture and ATVET as the engines of youth and women empowerment for regional development,” Hon. Danwanaa urged. His remarks echoed the government’s commitment to revitalizing Planting for Food and Jobs Phase II and aligning TVET reforms with industry and agribusiness opportunities. The event underscored the growing synergy between traditional leadership, local governance, and national programmes in ensuring that young people, especially in northern Ghana, are equipped with the skills and confidence to lead. In the Bono East Region, the Springboard youth conference found expression at Techiman, where Hon. Kwaku Adjei Mensah, the Municipal Chief Executive, rallied young people to see agriculture not as a fallback, but as a frontier of innovation and enterprise. “Agriculture remains one of the most promising sectors for our youth,” he said. “It offers vast potential for innovation, employment, and enterprise.” The event spotlighted the intersection of mental health, mentorship, and entrepreneurship, with participants engaging in sessions on resilience and business start-ups. Members of the Ghana Grows Girls Club shared their success stories, including Ellen Anyaki, who turned e-mentoring and food processing lessons into a thriving garlic and ginger paste business, and Haggar Sackey, founder of Evert & Co., a youth-led soap production venture now training senior high school students. These stories personify the transformation Springboard seeks, from passive job seekers to proactive creators of value. At Bechem in the Ahafo Region, the traditional voice took centre stage. The Chief of Bechem, Nana Opaw Nwomaso Boampong Bekoe, called on government to expand support for agriculture, agribusiness, and ATVET programmes, describing them as “the true pathways to national wealth creation.” “When you go to Kumasi, most of the big houses belong to farmers,” he said. “These are the kinds of programmes the government should sponsor because they prepare young people to create real value.” The Bechem gathering featured hundreds of youths eager to learn from the success of Ghana Grows participants like Esther, who after attending the Empower360 Resin Arts Training in Accra, launched her own business and now mentors others. Hon. Charity Gardiner, Ahafo Regional Minister, commended the Foundation for its focus on young women in agriculture, noting that nearly 80% of participants in Ghana Grows are female, breaking traditional barriers in agribusiness and entrepreneurship. Across Wa, Techiman, and Bechem, one truth stands out, the Springboard Road Show 2025 is more than a series of events; it is a national awakening. It connects policy with people, and inspiration with opportunity, reshaping how young people see their potential. Under the leadership of Comfort Ocran, Executive Director of the Springboard Road Show Foundation, and Albert Ocran, Technical Director, the movement blends storytelling, mentorship, and enterprise development into a transformative model for youth inclusion and empowerment. “True capital begins with what’s in your hands,” Comfort Ocran reminds participants. “Diligence, integrity, and tenacity build businesses that last.” As the 16-region tour continues, the Road Show is cultivating a new generation of purpose-driven changemakers, young people who are not just dreaming of the future, but building it, one skill, one business, and one community at a time.

MTN CEO Stephen Blewett Urges Youth to Seize AI and Digital Opportunities

Chief Executive Officer of MTN Ghana, Stephen Blewett, has called on young people across Ghana to embrace artificial intelligence (AI), digital tools, and entrepreneurship as the keys to unlocking their future prosperity. He emphasized that the digital revolution is already underway and must be harnessed to create opportunities rather than feared. Speaking on Springboard, Your Virtual University with Rev. Albert Ocran, Mr. Blewett highlighted Ghana’s potential to become a leader in AI if government, the private sector, civil society, and citizens work together. “It must be a collaboration. Government can’t run alone. MTN can’t run alone. NGOs can’t. But if we all put our efforts together with a common purpose, Ghana can lead this revolution. Otherwise, someone else will take that position,” he stated. Mr. Blewett revealed that MTN is investing in young people to drive innovation while also supporting the government’s One Million Coders Project, an initiative designed to prepare the next generation for the jobs of the future. Encouraging young people to be proactive, he advised: “Don’t wait. Put yourself forward. Get together with friends, develop ideas, and pursue opportunities. One of the biggest opportunities I see in Africa is gaming — but games that are developed locally, coded creatively, and even enhanced with AI.” He further urged parents to support their children’s interests in gaming and digital technology, noting that these tools can be powerful vehicles for learning and innovation. “Sometimes we reject it because it’s unfamiliar. But gaming can be used positively, even for education in maths and science. Parents must see the potential rather than dismiss it,” he explained. Reflecting on his own leadership journey, Mr. Blewett admitted that he was “arrogant” earlier in his career but has since learned humility, resilience, and service. “As a CEO, you are a custodian, a servant. You ultimately serve everyone in the organization, even the shareholder with just ten shares. That’s a sobering thought,” he remarked. Highlighting the impact of MTN Ghana, which serves over 30 million customers daily, he underscored the scale of responsibility the company carries. “If I turned off the network today, you would see how important we are. We are shaping the digital future of economies and people. That is a huge responsibility,” he said. Looking ahead, Mr. Blewett reaffirmed MTN’s commitment to continued investment in network quality, digital services, and opportunities for Ghanaians. “What gives me the most joy is seeing lives touched through what we do. Our ethos is that everyone deserves the benefits of a modern, connected life, and we will not leave anyone behind,” he affirmed.

From Two Pupils to 215: How Springboard Inspired a teacher to Build a School in Zorko

Dr. Thomas Abugre, Founder of Zimas Grace International School in Zorko, Upper East Region, credits a single encounter with the Springboard Road Show in 2010 for transforming his life and inspiring him to establish the first private school in his community. Speaking on the Springboard Hangout with Comfort Ocran, Dr. Abugre recounted how attending the Road Show sparked a vision to create opportunities for children in Zorko, a community that previously only had public schools. “Hearing Reverend Albert Ocran say it doesn’t matter where you are, you can make it, I was moved to act,” he recalled. According to Dr. Abugre, the school started in a rented single room with just two pupils, the children of his colleagues. By the end of the first year, enrolment had grown to 10. Today, Zimas Grace International School boasts 215 pupils and 12 teachers, offering classes from kindergarten through junior high school. The school also runs an affordable feeding programme, ensuring pupils receive daily meals, a factor Dr. Abugre says has improved attendance and retention. Beyond founding the school, Dr. Abugre has pursued his own education relentlessly, progressing from a Cert-A teacher to earning a first degree, a master’s, and a PhD specializing in early childhood development. “The Springboard Road Show changed my mindset about being a village champion. If I can rise to this level, so can others,” he said. Despite its success, the school faces significant challenges with infrastructure and land ownership. Zorko’s traditional landowners do not sell land to non-natives, so Zimas Grace currently operates in rented spaces, including a community centre. This limitation has prevented the school from fully utilizing its computer lab, despite receiving 15 computers through a donation facilitated by Springboard. Despite these obstacles, Dr. Abugre says the school has made a lasting impact, inspiring the emergence of other private schools in the area and reducing the need for parents to send their children to Bolgatanga for private education. Looking ahead, he hopes to track the progress of his pupils over the next decade and expand facilities to support their growth. He urged young people and the public to support the school’s infrastructure needs, either through the PTA or its bank account. “If there is anything you can get hooked on, get hooked on the Springboard Road Show. It has transformed my life, and it can transform yours,” he advised. The visit to Zorko was part of the 2025 Springboard Road Show, which is touring 16 cities and engaging over 500,000 youth in one amazing experience.
