President John Dramani Mahama has expressed confidence in Ghana's resilient economy, attributing its stability to prudent management during an accountability engagement in Wa, Upper West Region. The economy, previously vulnerable to global economic fluctuations, now stands on "concrete pillars," even with the recent Iran-Israel-US war, which would have had a devastating impact on the economy if it occurred in a less stable period.
The President pledged to invest GH¢2.5 billion annually in five critical sectors – pharmaceuticals, agriculture and agro-processing, tourism, and power generation – to create jobs and opportunities for young people. The investments will target the private sector, with no intention of establishing state-owned enterprises. The country is also advancing constitutional reforms, with a Constitutional Review Implementation Committee already in place to implement recommendations from the Constitutional Review Committee.
President Mahama clarified that Arabic and Chinese languages would not be introduced as compulsory subjects in the school curriculum. Concerning the National Cathedral project, he voiced concerns about the proposed location due to its proximity to key public facilities.
