“Through robust institutional reforms and unwavering commitment, we have fortified the structures to enhance transparency and accountability,” the president stated, expressing optimism about the sustainability of these efforts beyond his presidency.
Akufo-Addo also expressed confidence in the country’s economic recovery, asserting that the country’s economy has exceeded initial expectations despite global and domestic challenges.
