Today, Thursday, February 27, marks the first State of the Nation Address (SONA) that President John Mahama will give since taking office for a second term.
His administration’s ambitious “Resetting Ghana” program, which aims to revive the economy, create jobs, and restore stability, is scheduled to be set in motion by the eagerly awaited address.
Mahama’s speech is regarded as a pivotal opportunity to reassure residents and lay out specific answers in light of the country’s economic hardship, growing inflation, and high unemployment.
His 24-hour economy policy, a pillar of his economic strategy, is anticipated to emerge as a transformative endeavor to propel industrial growth, increase productivity, and establish long-term job opportunities.
Important stakeholders, such as the Trades Union Congress (TUC), corporate executives, and civil society organizations, have already urged the government to propose tangible solutions to address the rising cost of living, wage inequality, and infrastructure issues.
Economic transformation, governance reforms, and social development are the main focuses of Mahama’s Resetting Ghana agenda, which lays the groundwork for policy changes in vital industries including manufacturing, technology, energy, and agriculture.
Political observers believe that his speech to Parliament and the country will be the subject of considerable debate, with opposition parties and the business community closely examining his suggestions.
Ghanaians will be intently observing Mahama’s intentions to guide the country toward recovery and growth as it faces an economic turning point.
