a real network connected guy and dhaka which thrived then to the gold strip from the local mine even today can't you see you know as a city of rails but the trains don't try anymore the trading sixer is just as broken as the trucks which are now covered in overgrown grass made them i dunno and that stands the main problem in chi. yankees because while there is a discrepancy between qualifications and available jobs the result here in the mines but if you have a degree in literature. or you're a lawyer then them are jobs available in the mines it's different if you're an electrician or. an adjustment between supply and demand hasn't taken place yet but i do question. that i thought. as a result many young minds believe that they have a better chance of achieving something if they move abroad. broke the cycle
7:34 am
in state he used the savings to buy as top of all when in a meat grinder in france which eventually brought back to him to money his brother said he would help him set up the restaurant but things didn't exactly go to plan to be demanded to do diversity i asked him to pick up the appliances when i went to france for 3 months to work he told me it wasn't a problem but when i left appliances and went back to our village to 11 he sold everything when i heard about it i was devastated. but even lease it back into stop the so called nobody understood why he wanted to return from his home in. the remains firmly convinced that miley has much to go for it's just after the millions themselves through popular as the opportunities available and help bring the country paula leslie even though his restaurant is becoming more and more popular has to make many sacrifices. are slipping
7:35 am
america's torrent on the market i don't even have a mattress. i hunger mosquito net i've been sleeping here since 2015 listening to he makes these sacrifices in the hope of realizing his biggest dream of war and to see his wife into small daughters again who are still living in front of him. now that's a powerful story of determination let's hope he makes enough money soon we're night with his family so what does it take to leave your home your family your entire life behind that's what our streets debate is all about we sent our reporter money to a city and not in ghana. migration hotspots locals often trouble to ghana's capital accra to find work or they risk their lives by undertaken the long and dangerous journey to europe we asked young residents in town. about the challenges they're
7:36 am
facing and what would make them stay. this week the 77 percent is intel and that's in the north of gonna here you are guaranteed temperatures are above 30 degrees celsius but also a huge number of young people leaving the stone and we want to find out why and how africa can learn from the lessons here and to begin with i'm going to speak to a social analyst here as part of our panel just to give us an overview of the situation entirely is it a problem young people leaving it's a problem i can i can attest to the fact between 2010 the population increase in accra was 40.7 percent and this was about migration from the north to the south so we can say that of course people really moving the commanding is here pointing out that you have
7:37 am
a point that i just want to highlight the crisis situation it is just a perception it is a perception it is because someone things that we're going to get you come and get . but i mean why would you leave your comfort zone and go to the unknown but you know what i have no electricity no what i'm also of entertainment as a graduate i come then you say because in the way you go to the right area most of us are families and we are mostly stuff distance families there is no commercial farming actually graduate when i go back to the village. it is the rule of the government to provide the social i mean even electricity is not the duty of the youth what is not the duty of the youth your role some of the duty of the you feel the need of the government and. i don't think the use of my great ok i'm going to come back to the commanding just a shocking does this sound like it's your reality that it's just your mindset it's just it's very different from what i'm thinking about i've been born and bred in a local village called talent in the district i've been dela my life until i
7:38 am
finished my 2nd grade cation you know what when i came to terminal then the job for about 5 years and i was not making it i went to libya and stayed there for about 4 or 5 years and came back look when i went to libya i learned auto industry because i became an electrician when i came back here my people over there. when i went there. for over 3 months i didn't get even $10.00 and opinions that all the sense that i'm taken to do now i'm gradually packing up and i wanted to when i would go to america i would find no matter what even if i had ok so obviously this is a highly emotional issue particularly for someone like. clement are you noting because you're in agreement yes somehow because there are communities who go on people they have electricity or when you go to the community electricity how they really look up or distance involved in the governance process allowing them to be
7:39 am
part of the scene the computers then they can also monitor some of this just a lindau bring the amenities that we need to stabilize our people to stay back. let me come back to the commander because it's interesting you're saying you're not in government you're not a politician but you've been tasked with implementing it well it's just been organized by the community sometimes let's not reduce the discussion to governance and politics and that sort of thing but surely limited surely surely is going to. allow me peace to moderate because the points are good governance and politics are affecting an apartment possible the problems were said let me tell you i must admit that it is the duty of government to provide basic amenities like water on a tree city roads and all that in some areas we have distance and use it to little the road in years where they can even get food at cheaper prices where we do little rock area where accommodation is relatively cheap where food is really.
7:40 am
and you go and this isn't the 1st place aquarium accommodation that is very difficult ok ok as it is really to be cheaper and you are paid will you stay at a place where when your wife you see live by it to be difficult for you to access health you have to carry her on the tracey come and carry here for more than a 100 kilometers to gets access to a skilled delivery where you are in the city you are paid the same salary and it would take you just 15 minutes to carry your wife from your house to hospital to get specialized care let us be very tough try to get that into you plus you don't want it because you don't want to accept the reality somebody in the village talk to you today you have come to the city truck partition or whatever what you think of that person is another human being the village idiot. in the village i must tell you we shouldn't go about we should go back to safe but the ever mention the condition right now if you go to the village free s.h.s.
7:41 am
and so enrollment has increased well students are like you on the up to me in writing you know it takes. classroom rules have been ripped up saying we shouldn't go back but when a teacher agrees or agrees to say somewhere in the northern part. of it should be conducive for the person to stay. right where you want your hospital. in your 1st trimester you wouldn't be the doctor. the doctor would go ok so we're obviously addressed these problems and there are many but no i want to figure out how we move past them you know well again what is left. of nation we can train as much as we can some will survive even in business if we $300.00 and even 40 able to be in business we have done a good job so that we can do that continuously and after some time we are able to
7:42 am
make people study or we are able to bring people who are there but let's not forget the fact that we cannot ban my career because some of them are just very important ok and finally i want to get a job or actually had a lot of points and i want to know how we can move beyond this point so that in 2025 we're not talking about the same issues even in the absence of all the social i mean it is who want to tell the youth that all hope is not lost they said the key to success so we need to be serious we tell education we need to listen if we have all the social i mean it is in the rural people. so we've heard it here that the law of the road ahead is long and arduous but it's not insurmountable it's been a very heated debates to match the very hot temperatures here in time really but thank you for watching.
7:43 am
thank you for bringing us that very important debate. now i believe migration and unemployment are 2 of the biggest issues facing young africans today governments should develop rural areas so people don't leave but those are just my thoughts we want to hear your so share them with us on our facebook page and if you want to hear more from our participants you can watch the longer version of the street debate on our you tube channel. well that debate also leads us to the question of entrepreneurship we asked our correspondents across africa how difficult is it to start a business is what they have to say. doing business is still very challenging business is putting up every day this is barely you know. i won't come to uganda business is cutting up every day enterprises to multiple partnerships you've known for the.
7:44 am
new businesses according to the world bank small and medium enterprises can be really easy to start in uganda but keeping them running is a challenge according to the government more than half the startups do not last 18 months. establishing startups in zimbabwe is no easy task there is lead to institutional support for young people to thrive this is barely you know existence in many young people and our mission lies in open markets high rates of unemployment all but a dip a cent would have been a good catalyst for them to thrive but the economy just doesn't want to support it . going back to other countries doing business in very challenging high tax. difficulties. i let it get to.
7:45 am
the new business is bringing up every day. he's. making the most on the continent. so it seems like the success of new businesses varies across the continent how do you have to try to build a business in your country your experience with 77 a d w dot com. this guy here is. he's a wealthy street from johannesburg south africa. from locals to celebrities everyone loves the school all he needs to keep his business running is a markets with fresh ingredients and a little stove top to prepare it all he took us on new food inspired for around his city johannesburg and joy. yeah
