Presidential Advisor on the 24-Hour Economy Policy, Goosie Tanoh, has praised President John Dramani Mahama for his strong commitment to entrepreneurship and national transformation.
He described the President as a visionary leader who understands the urgent need for Ghana to embrace responsible entrepreneurship to achieve meaningful development.
Speaking at the official launch of the 24-hour economy and Accelerated Export Development Programme in Accra on Wednesday, July 2, Mr. Tanoh said the initiative was a practical tool for transforming the country.
“We can say without a doubt that our President is a true champion of responsible entrepreneurship and national transformation. We, as a country, we, as a people, have what it takes to succeed,” he stated.
Mr. Tanoh also emphasised the openness of the 24-hour economy secretariat to feedback and public engagement, describing it as crucial to the success of the policy.
“We at the secretariat are confident that we will continue to receive constructive criticism and suggestions for further improvement. Criticism is always welcome,” he noted.
“We see the 24-hour programme as a living programme, enriched in science and firm social democratic principles, but flexible enough to respond tactically to a changing environment,” he stressed.
Meanwhile, President Mahama has described the flagship policy as a revival of Ghana’s founding vision of industrial transformation, originally championed by Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.
According to him, the country is returning to the true mission behind the Akosombo Dam — not just to generate electricity but to drive industrial growth, agro-processing, and national productivity across key sectors.
