Legal migration is the future – Basintale backs work abroad initiative

In a recent statement, Basintale has endorsed the initiative promoting legal migration for work abroad, emphasizing its potential benefits for both individuals and the nation. Highlighting the growing trend of overseas employment, he pointed out that many young Ghanaians are seeking opportunities beyond their borders. This shift, according to Basintale, could alleviate local unemployment issues while simultaneously enhancing skills and experiences that can be brought back to Ghana.

He argued that supporting legal migration aligns with global labor demands and offers a structured pathway for Ghanaians looking to improve their livelihoods. By adhering to lawful processes, migrants can ensure their rights are protected and contribute positively to host countries' economies.

Basintale's advocacy comes at a critical time when illegal migration poses significant risks. He urged the government and relevant stakeholders to create more robust frameworks that facilitate safe migration channels. Ultimately, he believes that embracing legal avenues will not only empower individuals but also foster economic development in Ghana as returnees bring valuable knowledge and resources back home.
