Ghana's government wants to change how the country works around the clock. Augustus Tanoh works as an advisor to President Mahama about this new plan. He says lawmakers will discuss the policy after the president shows it to everyone on July 2. Parliament Speaker Alban Bagbin thinks all politicians need to talk about it first. This will help everyone understand what the government wants to do.
The new program could create jobs for 1.7 million people over four years. Tanoh believes this will change how Ghana makes money and helps businesses grow. The government plans to raise four billion dollars from other countries and groups around the world. They will also give 300 million dollars to help people start their businesses. The money will come from partnerships with banks and development groups.
The policy has three main parts that focus on making things better. One part deals with creating products and growing food. Another part helps move goods from place to place more easily. The third part trains workers to do their jobs better and faster.
Eight smaller programs will support these main goals. Some have names like Grow 24 and Make 24 that show what they do. The government wants to build special business areas near the Volta Lake. They looked at countries like Singapore and Malaysia to learn how to make this work. Leaders believe Ghana can become the best example of growth across all of Africa.
