According to Mahama, this initiative aims to mirror the youthful demographic of the nation in its highest decision-making body.

"One of the promises I leave you young people with is that the NDC cabinet post January 7, 2025, is going to be averagely one of the youngest cabinets in the history of this country," he said.

He added that, "if you look at the demographics of our country and you know that the majority are young people then definitely if you’re setting up a cabinet, young people must be the majority in that cabinet."
