President Akufo-Addo has urged Ghanaians to remain hopeful for the coming year stating that Ghana's economy is rebounding due to the effective measures undertaken by the outgoing government.

The president noted that this is evident not just in statistics but in real life-changing stories, assuring of a brighter future.

He said the 7.2% growth rate achieved in the third quarter of 2024 confirms the strong recovery.

He noted that progress has been made despite the challenges the government and the people of Ghana faced.

"Our economy is rebounding impressively as demonstrated by the remarkable 7.2% growth achieved in the Q3 of 2024, with the year’s growth rate projected at 6.8%.

“These achievements are not just numbers or statistics. They are stories of life changed and futures made brighter. But I also acknowledge the challenges we have faced. The road has not always been smooth, and there have been times of difficulty and sacrifice.”

“The post-COVID-19 years have tested us to our limit, but it also reminded us of who we are, a people who rise together no matter the odds.”

The outgoing President urged Ghanaians to remain hopeful as they embrace the New Year, 2025.

“As we step into 2025, I encourage us all to hold on to the hope that’s carried us this far.”
