Former President John Mahama has said people who have destroyed Ghanaians’ hope will be voted out of office on December 7, 2024.
Speaking at his Tamale residence to mark the start of the 2024 New Year, Mr. Mahama said that real leadership must take action to rescue the people from their predicament.
“Democracy cannot thrive without trusted and true leadership. Economics cannot grow without true and trusted leadership. Willing nations can only become great if they have quality and trusted leadership. When things are tough, true and trusted leaders set up a vision that inspires people and gives them hope.
“And this hope provides us with the strength we need to move forward. When hope is gone the people who destroyed your hope must also go. They will go on December 7th 2024 without hope there is danger everywhere you turn,” Mr. Maham stated.
He continued: “This is why the fundamental duty of any true leader is to instill hope where there is none or to revive it when it is gone. A true leader must cause positive change by example and action. I promise to lead the change and I invite you to be part of the change.”
The former president added that a new budget with tax adjustments to provide incentives for businesses will be introduced by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government in 2025.
“National Democratic Congress has developed a comprehensive plan which will be shared with businesses, academia, civil society and the youth to create jobs and opportunities for all our young people. It will also encourage business ownership and entrepreneurship among them.
“In April 2025 the new NDC government shall introduce a new budget to support and build more businesses and adjust taxes that will serve as an incentive for job creation. At the heart of my vision for economic growth, Mr. Mahama stated.
