The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of MoonTouch Travel Limited, a travel agency in Ghana, Ms Radia Adama Saani, has been selected as one of the moderators for the 8th Africa Students Youth Summit in Rabat, the Kingdom of Morocco this year.

The summit which is being organised by All Africa Students Union (AASU) in partnership with the Moroccan International Cooperation Agency (AMCI) and the Ghana Morocco Old Students Association (GHAMOSA) is slated for Thursday December 19 -22, 2019 and is on the theme, "The future of work, prospects and challenges for young people”.

It is expected to bring together recognised youth groups, business experts, diplomats and professionals across the continent.

A platform to inspire the youth

Ms Saani in an interview with the  Graphic Online said the event will give her to want to aspire the youth on the continent to attain greater heights.

The CEO of the fast rising travel agency in Ghana further stated that the platform given her is an opportunity to make Ghana proud.

She indicated that Morocco is her second home, as she schooled and nurtured her aviation and tourism career from there.

"The dynamic training I actually had in Morocco shaped my thinking, attitude, and global view about perspectives of the aviation and tourism industries.

In actual fact, I acquired the requisite skills to venture into these industries through the university education I had in Morocco and United Kingdom” she noted.

The thirty two year old entrepreneur started her aviation career with Ghana Airports Company Ltd, and later became a cabin crew with Kenya Airways Ltd.

Radia Adama Saani, establishing her travel company, has since been touted as one of the daring inspirational ladies making great difference in Ghana, and contributing to national development.

She holds Master’s degree in International Hospitality & Tourism Management from Sheffield Hallam University in the UK. She also had her first degree and diploma in similar fields from Université Abdel-Malek Essaadi, in Morocco which makes her very fluent in both French and English languages.

The summit

This submit intends to bring together students and Youth of African descent from within Africa and the diaspora.

It is the largest students and Youth gathering on the continent, and therefore would provide avenue for participants to meet government officials, network with captains of industry, build capacity, and gain leadership skills.

Over one thousand (1000) delegates from sixty (60) countries are expected to take part in this year's summit.
