President John Dramani Mahama states that his administration has taken difficult yet necessary decisions over the past year to lay a solid foundation for Ghana’s long-term development.
Speaking at the National Thanksgiving Day event held on Wednesday at the forecourt of the Presidency, President Mahama acknowledged that the impact of the government’s decisions may not yet be fully visible, but stressed that they are aimed at ensuring sustainable growth.
“As we look back on the past year, we do so honestly. We have taken difficult decisions, we have undertaken difficult reforms, and we have laid the foundations that may not yet be visible, but are for the sustainable progress of our country,” he said.
The President noted that his government has made significant strides in restoring confidence in Ghana, both domestically and internationally. According to him, the administration has focused on economic stabilisation, institutional reforms, and social protection as key pillars of its governance agenda.
“We have prioritised economy stabilisation, institutional reforms, social protection and the restoration of confidence both within our country and in the international community,” he stated.
President Mahama added that while much work remains, progress should not be judged solely by statistics and economic indicators, but also by the renewal of public trust and hope.
“The work we have begun is far from finished, but today reminds us that progress is not measured only by numbers, by charts and diagrams; it is also measured by hope that is restored, by trust that is rebuilt and correct directions that are regained,” he said.
The National Thanksgiving Service was held to mark President Mahama’s first year in office as the sixth President of Ghana’s Fourth Republic. He was sworn into office on Tuesday, January 7, 2025, by former Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo.
