John Mahama Proposes 24-Hour Economy to Tackle Ghana's Economic Challenges
John Dramani Mahama, the NDC's 2024 flagbearer, unveils a 24-hour economy initiative aimed at solving Ghana's economic challenges by fostering continuous business operations and job creation.
The 2024 flagbearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has declared that his proposed 24-hour economy initiative is the solution to addressing Ghana’s financial and economic challenges.
Speaking during a special live broadcast themed ‘Mahama Conversations,’ the former president emphasized that this initiative is crucial for overcoming the country’s current and future difficulties. Mahama explained that the 24-hour economy would create an enabling environment for businesses, companies, and government agencies, leading to increased job creation and higher employment rates. He stressed that this initiative would be instrumental in boosting economic activity and fostering growth across various sectors.
Highlighting the benefits, Mr. Mahama asserted that the 24-hour economy would significantly improve the standard of living for many Ghanaians. By promoting continuous economic engagement, he insisted that the initiative aims to strengthen the overall economic framework and provide more opportunities for the populace.
“The 24-hour initiative is the answer for now and in the future. It will create an enabling environment with deliberate policies for businesses, companies, and government institutions to operate 24/7 in a three-eight-hour shift system,” Mahama explained.
He elaborated, “In addition to the traditional 8-hour shift system, the two additional work shifts that my administration will introduce will double and sometimes triple the number of jobs that participate in public and private entities that we currently have. This is the 24-hour economy optimization strategy: giving more to society, providing efficient service delivery, and generating decent and well-paying jobs.”
Mahama highlighted that the benefits of this system will include, but are not limited to, 24-hour port and harbour services, 24-hour customs services, 24-hour DVLA services, 24-hour agro-processing factories, 24-hour manufacturing industries, and 24-hour construction companies.
As Ghana continues to grapple with economic challenges, John Mahama’s 24-hour economy proposal offers a strategic framework aimed at revitalizing the nation's economic landscape and ensuring sustainable development.
