Mahama: Ghana’s recovery lies in truth, unity, and shared sacrifice

President John Dramani Mahama has called on Ghanaians to embrace the spirit of Easter by working together to revive the country’s struggling economy and rebuild national hope.

Delivering his Easter message on Friday, April 18, Mahama stressed that unity, resilience, and truth are the key ingredients for national restoration.

The president’s address, steeped in both faith and patriotism, urged Ghanaians to draw inspiration from the resurrection of Christ and channel that strength into overcoming economic hardship and social discouragement.

“That same resurrection power lives in all of us, and in that power we can rise against discouragement, above hardship and fear,” he said.

Mahama’s message comes at a time when many Ghanaians are grappling with high inflation, unemployment, and a general sense of uncertainty about the country’s direction. But he remained optimistic that Ghana could overcome its current challenges through collective action.

“As I speak to you today, not only as a fellow believer but as a Ghanaian who loves my nation deeply, I believe with all my heart that our dear nation Ghana shall rise again. Our economy shall recover, and our youth will find opportunity. Our families will flourish and thrive,” he assured.

However, the president stressed that this hope can only become a reality through national cooperation across all sectors.

“But that restoration will require that all of us, government, churches, businesses and communities work together in unity and in truth that will make our nation rise again,” he stated.

Meanwhile, the vice president, Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, in a Facebook post on April 18, also
extended heartfelt Easter wishes to Ghanaians, where she encouraged citizens to use the season as an opportunity to renew their commitment to building a kinder and fairer nation.
