President John Dramani Mahama promises humility in power
President John Mahama has assured Ghanaians that his government will be devoid of arrogance and abuse of power.
According to him, he will ensure that those he has appointed to work in government are held to the highest standards.
He said this when he delivered his first State of the Nation Address on February 27, 2025.
John Mahama said, “The arrogance of power you so much abhor will be a thing of the past. I will enforce and demand the highest standards of performance from those I have chosen to work with me to improve the circumstances of our country.”
He reiterated that the economy is in bad shape and needs a lot to return to sustainable levels. The president pledged that his administration would ensure that the economy becomes bearable for the ordinary Ghanaian.
He said: “Mr Speaker, I would be remiss if I didn’t admit that the entire economic value chain is indeed in the ICU, as I recall mentioning a few years ago when we were still in opposition. The economy is even worse than we envisaged, but this gives us ample opportunity to be innovative in our efforts to reset and rebuild it.”
