President John Mahama has made a bold declaration, stating his commitment to steering Ghana’s development to an advanced, irreversible stage—a level that no future administration, regardless of political persuasion, can dismantle.
Speaking at the Jubilee House during a courtesy call from the Christian Council of Ghana on Tuesday, November 18, 2025, the President framed his current mandate not just as a term of office, but as a critical window to structurally embed progress.
The President directly addressed the potential for policy discontinuity, a common challenge in Ghana’s political cycle, by stressing the need for fundamental, enduring reforms.
“My mission is to use the mandate Ghanaians have given me to move Ghana to a level where anybody who comes after cannot reverse the gains that we have made,” he said.
President Mahama referenced ongoing regional and global instability—countries afflicted by persistent conflicts and regression often rooted in poor governance and the failure to sustain developmental achievements.
This context implies that Ghana’s stability is directly tied to the resilience of its economic and institutional structures, which his administration aims to fortify.
The President’s commitment to an irreversible development path is being pursued while the government simultaneously addresses immediate governance and financial challenges.
The administration is currently pursuing several high-profile corruption-related cases involving officials of the previous administration, signalling a determined effort to cleanse the public sector and protect state resources that fund development projects.
Furthermore, the government is intensively focused on implementing measures to stabilise the economy, which is critical for long-term policy survival.
These measures include:
- Implementing strict fiscal discipline to maintain budget targets, particularly following the presentation of the 2026 Budget Statement (delivered on November 13, 2025).
- Working to boost investor confidence to attract Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) necessary for industrialisation, as Ghana’s development hinges on private sector growth.
- President Commissions 36.5 Million Dollars Hospital In The Tain District
- You Will Not Go Free For Killing An Hard Working MP – Akufo-Addo To MP’s Killer
