Ghana at its lowest point but Mahama’s SONA is rejuvenating – Bagbin

Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, has described Ghana as being at its lowest point but says President John Dramani Mahama’s State of the Nation Address (SONA) has brought renewed hope.

On Thursday, February 27, President Mahama delivered his first SONA in Parliament, pledging to restore the country’s struggling economy.

Following the address, Bagbin took to Facebook 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, Bagbin expressed particular happiness about the government’s bold move to make tertiary education free for individuals considered disabled.
