President Mahama called on all stakeholders—government officials, economic experts, business leaders, and civil society groups—to contribute their ideas and efforts toward achieving a strong and stable economy.
“It is an invitation to all stakeholders to contribute their ideas and dedication to this national effort,” he concluded.
The National Economic Dialogue is expected to set the foundation for policy decisions that will drive Ghana’s economic recovery and long-term prosperity.
