President Mahama is anticipated to focus on critical sectors such as the economy, health, education, agriculture, and infrastructure. He is also expected to touch on Ghana’s international relations, diplomatic engagements, and global commitments.
The State of the Nation Address is a constitutional requirement under Article 67 of the 1992 Constitution, which mandates the President to appear before Parliament at the beginning of each session to present a message on the state of the nation.
The address will serve as a platform for the government to communicate its vision, policy agenda, and development strategies to lawmakers and the general public.
