President John Dramani Mahama has maintained his resolve to reset the country.
In his inaugural speech, Mr. Mahama highlighted his vision for Ghana’s economic revival, inclusivity, and governance reforms.
He underscored the need for accountability, innovation, and unity.
The President appealed to Ghanaians to support him in resetting the country and restoring economic confidence.
“To the millions of my fellow countrymen and women who joined long queues and waited in the sun to vote for me, you have my sincerest thanks for honouring me. Your courage to bring change will not go in vain.”
He promised the citizens that he will deliver on his mandate as President with sound judgement and take responsibility for addressing the challenges facing the country.
“I will have the humility to take responsibility for any challenges and be willing to ask for help in resolving them,” he noted.
He said, “We will rationalise our tax systems to make them fair and transparent. The business community must know that Ghana is back in business,” he declared.
“We need a reset of faith—in our country, in our institutions, and in ourselves,” he said. “You are Ghana; I am Ghana. Together, we make this country. Let us enter into a covenant to build the Ghana we all desire.”
He went to pledge his commitment towards youth and women empowerment.
“Our youth represent the heartbeat of our democracy. Their ambitions will drive our policies.”
He assured the people that he will implement a 24-hour economy model to create jobs and stimulate local industries.
“This model will create decent jobs for young people, stimulate local industry, attract foreign investments, and foster resilient communities,” Mahama said.
“With Nana Jane by my side, we are committed to creating a society where barriers are shattered and ambitions are realised.
“We will implement policies that empower women and ensure opportunities are open to all, regardless of background.”
“Our decisions will prioritise inclusivity, ensuring everyone has a seat at the table,” he stated. “We will create an equitable society where opportunities are open to all.”
To the business community he said, “Your innovation and dedication will be the backbone of our success story.”
“To our friends from across Africa and the world, I say, ‘Akwaaba!’ Your presence is a testament to the strong bonds of friendship and cooperation that exist between our nations,” he said.
