John Mahama's 24-hour policy is key for Ghana’s economic development-Fiifi Kwetey

Fifi Kwetey, the General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has highlighted the 24-hour policy of the flagbearer, Former President John Dramani Mahama, as a key component of the NDC’s strategy for Ghana’s economic development. 

The policy emphasizes the need for businesses and economic activities to operate continuously around the clock to enhance productivity and efficiency. The 24-hour economy is seen as a way to make Ghana more competitive and self-sufficient on a global stage.

“In the face of our current economic challenges, H. E John Mahama presents a bold solution to uplift Ghana’s economy and its people.”

According to the General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), the transformative initiative will revolutionize Ghana’s economic landscape by promoting round-the-clock economic activities.

The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) emphasized that the 24-hour policy, as highlighted by the flagbearer, Former President John Dramani Mahama, aims to create new job opportunities across various sectors. This initiative is designed to breathe a new life into Ghana’s economy and provide a vital lifeline for those affected by the economic downturn.

The General Secretary’s emphasis on the 24-hour policy as a means to drive economic growth and prosperity for all citizens in Ghana aligns with broader global strategies aimed at promoting shared prosperity and economic development.

He stated that the approach is rooted in the understanding that economic growth is not just about increasing GDP; it is about ensuring that benefits are widely distributed and that all sectors of society are lifted.

A 24-hour economy has the potential to greatly increase a nation’s economic output and draw on foreign investment, which is why the General Secretary stressed that the 24-hour policy has a way to improve Ghana’s competitiveness in the world.

Again, he argued that the approach is not just about extending business hours; it is also about creating an ecosystem that supports continuous productivity, thereby enhancing economic output.

Fifi Kwetey suggested that the policy aims to maximize the use of resources round-the-clock, catering to a wider range of customers and industries, including those operating outside of traditional hours. This includes manufacturing, healthcare, transportation, and emergency services, which can operate 24/7, thereby meeting the higher demand and increasing exports.

“HE John Mahama’s 24-hour economy policy is not just a plan—it’s a lifeline for our economy, offering hope and opportunity for a brighter future.”
