President John Dramani Mahama has told his ministerial appointees that when any of them fall short he will not hesitate to act.
John Mahama stated that the business-as-usual approach must be buried.
He noted that the Ghanaian people expect the NDC government to deliver and they must deliver without any excuses but with results.
According to John Mahama, he did not select them to occupy spaces but to solve problems.
Speaking at the opening of a four-day Executive Leadership Programme for Ministerial Appointees on Thursday, April 24, 2025, President Mahama stated, “You were not appointed to occupy space. You were appointed to solve problems,” Mahama stated. “The Ghanaian people expect us to deliver. And we must – not with excuses, but with results.”
“We’re not here simply to orient ministers. We’re here to shape a collective mindset”, he added.
John Mahama further warned, “The business-as-usual approach will not work. Indeed, it is dead and we must bury it once and for all”.
“Our young people are tired of waiting interminably. Our farmers, our workers, our entrepreneurs… want to live in dignity and prosperity”
“Please remember, when any of us fall short, I will not hesitate to act,” Mahama added.
President Mahama further cautioned that accountability would not be compromised under his leadership.
Meanwhile, the leadership programme brings ministers, private sector leaders, and development partners to build a collective vision for useful, accountable governance under the new administration.
