The National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Ashanti region has unveiled plans to lead former President John Mahama in a public engagement initiative on the principal streets of Kumasi.

The purpose of this initiative is to interact with the public and discuss the NDC's proposal for a 24-hour economy.

The 24-hour economy policy, introduced by the opposition party, has generated both praise and criticism since its announcement by the NDC flagbearer in preparation for the 2024 elections.

Speaking to the press, Dr. Frank Amoakohene, the Ashanti Regional Secretary of the NDC, expressed the party's confidence in the potential economic benefits of the 24-hour economy policy.

He stated that the NDC aims to launch a sensitization campaign to underscore the significance of this policy, as emphasized by former President John Dramani Mahama during his recent 'Building Ghana Tour.'

The campaign is expected to engage the public and provide insights into the party's vision for economic development through the proposed 24-hour economy.

“We will assure citizens to not give up because help is on its way. H.E John Dramani Mahama will rescue the country come 7th December, 2024 and he shall implement the 24 hour economy which will transform Ghana within 24 months,” he said.

According to Dr. Amoakohene, the policy championed by the NDC will lead Ghana into economic prosperity.

“The NDC, under the leadership of H.E. John Dramani Mahama, is committed to the vision of a 24-hour economy. This proposition is driven by the pressing need to address unemployment challenges across various sectors of the economy. We believe that transitioning to a 24-hour economy will unlock immense opportunities for businesses and individuals,” he indicated.
