Speaker of Parliament, Rt. Hon. Alban Sumani Kingsford Bagbin, says President John Dramani Mahama’s maiden State of the Nation Address (SONA) has brought renewed hope to Ghanaians.
According to him, even though Ghana is at its lowest point, President Mahama’s SoNA is rejuvenating.
Speaker Bagbin on Thursday, February 27, 2025, took to Facebook hours after President Mahama presented his maiden address on the floor of the House to express his concerns about the nation’s state while acknowledging the president’s commitment to addressing the challenges.
“Clearly, our country is not in good shape. The decay is massive. Ghana, an African icon, is at our lowest point,” Bagbin stated, underscoring the severity of the situation.
However, Bagbin found hope in President Mahama’s address, describing it as rejuvenating.
“But the address of President John Dramani Mahama is rejuvenating. It’s stimulating confidence about quick recovery, resetting, and restoration to a more rewarding investment climate and social justice,” he remarked.
As a passionate advocate for persons with disabilities, the Rt. Hon. Speaker expressed particular happiness about the government’s bold move to make tertiary education free for individuals considered disabled.
