President John Dramani Mahama has called on Ghanaians to envision a nation where opportunity, integrity, and dignity define everyday life as the country enters 2026.
In his New Year message to the nation, President Mahama said he sees a Ghana where every child can dream and achieve, where hard work is rewarded, merit prevails over mediocrity, and corruption is punished.
The President emphasized that young Ghanaians should not have to risk their lives abroad in search of opportunities, noting that prospects should be abundant at home. He also highlighted his commitment to ensuring that senior citizens live with dignity, the sick receive care, and vulnerable groups are protected.
Mahama further expressed his vision of Ghana as a country respected internationally for its democratic strength, economic vibrancy, and the character of its people, calling it a “light unto Africa and a beacon unto the world.”
“This is not wishful thinking. This is the Ghana we are building together. This is the Ghana that is within our reach,” he said, urging citizens to work together to realize the nation’s potential.
