President John Dramani Mahama has urged exporters, farmers, and the youth to take decisive action in advancing Ghana’s productive economy, stressing that “the time is now” for the country to embrace growth and renewal as part of its vision.
Speaking at the 2025 Horticulture Expo held at Tafo in the Eastern region, he said, “The time is now. We are not starting from zero; we are building on the dreams of generations.”
He reminded the nation of the words of Ghana’s first President, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, who said, “Seek ye first the political kingdom.” According to President Mahama, it is time to “seek ye first the productive economy.”
He emphasised the importance of agriculture and youth empowerment in driving this economic transformation.
“To our farmers, you are the backbone of this renewal. To our youth, you are the heartbeat of our ambition,” he said.
He also assured the international community that “Ghana is open for business,” describing the country as “green, export-ready, and growing with purpose.”
President Mahama called for unity and partnership, stating that with “hope, confidence, and a renewed spirit of partnership,” Ghana is ready to open a new chapter of sustainable development.
