President Nana Akufo-Addo in his Easter Message, has urged Ghanaians to remain steadfast in his ambitious vision of prosperity for the country.
The President reiterated that his vision is to make Ghana rise above reliance on foreign aid, 6o years after independence.
“I have put before you, the Ghanaian people, the most ambitious programme of social and economic transformation of any government in the history of the Fourth Republic, if not in our entire history,” the President said in a message on his Facebook page.
President Akufo-Addo noted that, the programme to spearhead Ghana’s development is hinged on structuring the institutions of government, modernizing agriculture, a clear industrial policy and rationalizing the financial sector to support growth in the industry, manufacturing, and agriculture.”
“In my view, that is the way we can build a resilient economy and lead Ghana to a situation beyond aid,” the President affirmed.
President Akufo-Addo also urged Ghanaians to work with his administration to realize this vision of a “dignified self-reliant and prosperous Ghana.”
This Ghana, the President said, will be “a Ghana beyond aid, a Ghana mobilising its own material and human resources to build a strong economy capable of generating prosperity for the mass of its people, no longer dependent on handouts and charity.”
