Chairman of the National Economic Dialogue, Dr. Ishmael Yamson, has stated that President John Dramani Mahama is Ghana’s surest bet to transform the country into an economic powerhouse.
According to him, President Mahama with the kind of policies he has rolled out in his few months in office attest to the fact that he is the only leader capable of resetting Ghana and steering it toward sustainable economic growth.
Speaking at the opening of the National Economic Dialogue on Monday, March 3, 2025, Dr. Yamson highlighted the urgent need for transformative leadership to address Ghana’s economic challenges.
He pointed to economic mismanagement and corruption as key obstacles hindering the country’s progress, emphasising that a decisive and visionary leader is needed to chart a new course.
“Someone must reset Ghana, and it can only be you (John Dramani Mahama). Everywhere in the world that economic transformation has taken place, only one individual has led the charge, and the Lord has blessed you with the wisdom to take on that task,” Dr. Yamson reiterated.
He also stressed the need to free Ghana from the grip of poor governance and corruption, urging Mahama to take bold steps in leading the country’s economic recovery.
“It is time to liberate Ghana from economic mismanagement and corruption, to reset Ghana and put it on the path of sustainable and resilient growth,” Dr. Yamson retorted.
