Ghana’s President John Mahama has officially launched the much-anticipated 24-hour economy initiative in Accra, vowing it will spark job creation and economic revitalization. The policy, a key campaign promise, aims to drive productivity, especially in agriculture, manufacturing, and essential services.
Mahama described the move as a bold step toward transforming Ghana into a round-the-clock economy responsive to both local and global demand.
However, questions remain about the country’s readiness. Economists and policy analysts are calling for improved infrastructure, energy reliability, and labor protection frameworks to ensure success.
As debates unfold, the launch marks a defining moment in Ghana’s economic recovery strategy under the Mahama administration.
