The Minister for Information, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, has been adjudged Young Personality of the Year at the 2019 Made-In-Ghana Awards organised by the Entrepreneurs Foundation of Ghana.
In a citation, the foundation explained that the award was meant to highlight the work of young Ghanaian Politicians like Mr. Nkrumah who were using their positions to make a difference and to encourage others who have not considered politics an appealing vocation to see it as one of the most impactful ways to create positive change.
