Millennium Excellence Foundation under its President’s office on the night of Sunday 15th December 2019 honored nine exceptional young people for their selflessness in youth development for national growth.
Scofray Nana Yaw Yeboah picked an award in the category of youth mentorship. During the sofa interview, Scofray said that, in this dispensation it will be a sign of gross deceit to enumerate Africa’s natural resources without putting its youth first on the list. He explained that, it takes human ingenuity to turn every natural resource into any meaningful product, and in this regard, Africa’s youth need sound and life changing mentoring. Scofray has a combined 18 years of dedicated youth activism, mentorship and leadership development. He currently serves as the CEO of Zoweh Global Consult, doubles up as the president of Koforidua Sectech Old Student’s Association and Eastern Konnect an amalgamation of associations of secondary schools from the eastern region, he founded SLIT AFRICA an ngo in Bloemfontein, South Africa among many other means he reaches the youth.
