Having taken office for a second term, President John Dramani Mahama is scheduled to deliver his first State of the Nation Address (SONA) today, Thursday, 27th February.
Under the ambitious Resetting Ghana agenda, which seeks to revive the economy, generate employment, and restore national stability, the much-awaited speech is scheduled to describe his vision and priorities.
President Mahama is anticipated to reassure Ghana amid existing economic difficulties including high inflation, growing unemployment, and financial crisis by offering unambiguous policy solutions to handle these issues.
A major part of his economic plan, his 24-hour economy project is probably going to take the front stage as a revolutionary way to boost industrial development, increase productivity, and provide sustainable job prospects.
The Trades Union Congress (TUC), industry leaders, and civil society groups among other stakeholders have pushed the administration to offer specific answers to urgent national problems.
Among their main issues are the widening cost of living, pay differences, and infrastructure shortcomings still affecting the way of life of common people.
Expectations for measures guiding Ghana towards long-term growth and economic recovery remain strong as the country waits for President Mahama’s speech.
The address is scheduled to offer vital new perspectives on how his government should encourage inclusive development and resilience going forward.
