President-elect John Dramani Mahama has appointed Mr. Augustus Goosie Tanoh as the man to manage his flagship 24-hour economy policy.
Mr. Tannoh has been appointed in the capacity of Presidential Advisor Responsible for the 24-hour economy and Accelerated Export Development.
This was contained in a statement issued and signed by Felix Kwakye Ofosu, Special Aide to the president-elect, who would also be Acting as Spokesperson for President-elect effective tomorrow, Tuesday, January 7, 2025.
The 24-hour Economy according to the incoming administration, will be a deliberate policy intervention to encourage and support certain businesses and companies to operate 24/7, preferably in a three-shift system of 8 hours each, by creating an enabling environment that promotes productivity, competitiveness, and well-paying jobs.
The 24-hour Economy will be mainly anchored on Mahama’s overarching vision to create sustainable jobs for Ghanaians.
This will be achieved through his agenda to modernise and mechanise agriculture; provide incentives for the private sector to thrive; promote agro-processing and manufacturing; and transform Ghana into an import substitution and export-led economy, among other things.
The 24-hour economy policy will be a major boost for John Mahama’s import substitution and export drive.
Mr. Mahama had consistently explained that the policy will help stabilise our national currency, improve our reserves, bring down inflation and interest rates, create moreemployment opportunities and improve livelihoods.
Industries that the 24-hour economy will focus on
