President John Dramani Mahama has assured Ghanaians that his administration will resolve the country’s economic crisis by the end of his four-year mandate.
Delivering his first State of the Nation Address (SONA) in his second term on Thursday, February 27, he acknowledged the severity of the economic challenges but vowed to restore the nation’s growth and prosperity.
“I, John Dramani Mahama, will fix the economic crisis confronting our country and reset it on a path of growth and prosperity,” he declared.
Mahama admitted that the state of the nation was dire, with Ghanaians facing unprecedented hardships. However, he emphasized his commitment to solutions rather than blame.
“It is not my style to lament and shift blame. I am therefore not here to lament, even though there is much to lament about,” he stated.
The president highlighted his track record, referencing his past success in resolving Ghana’s energy crisis.
“I promised to fix ‘dumsor,’ and I fixed it. There was no power rationing or load management in Ghana,” he reminded the nation.
Mahama’s address reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to economic stabilization and recovery, signaling his readiness to implement policies that will steer the country towards financial stability and national progress.
