Tell the truth about what you inherited in SONA – Minority MPs to Mahama

Ahead of President John Mahama’s first State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Thursday, February 27, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Members of Parliament have called on him to be honest and candid about the state of the country he inherited from the erstwhile NPP government.

The address will mark President Mahama’s maiden SONA since he became President for the second time in January this year.

Speaking to journalists in Parliament, NPP MPs highlighted key issues, including employment, the economy, and the power crisis, which they believe the president must address in a transparent manner.

In a press interaction, MPs such as Akwasi Konadu (Manhyia North), Kofi Amankwah Manu (Atwima Kwanwoma), and Collins Adomako Mensah (Afigya Kwabre North) said they expect President Mahama to speak honestly about these critical matters.

They urged the president to provide clarity on the state of the country as he takes office for his second term.

Meanwhile, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) believes that President Mahama’s address will inspire hope and outline his vision for “resetting” the country.

MPs such as Sebastian Deh (Kpando) and Lawrencia Dziwornu (Akuapem South) are optimistic that the president will use his speech to present a clear path forward for Ghana’s future.
