Corporate and investment banker Robert Carl Nuacoo Nunoo has praised President John Dramani Mahama’s first 120 days in office, describing his presidency as marked by “urgency, clarity, and measured optimism.”
According to Nuacoo Nunoo, Mahama’s administration has pivoted on three defining pillars: restoring confidence, stabilizing institutions, and reshaping the narrative of national development.
“For a nation burdened by economic uncertainty, institutional fatigue, and growing social discontent, Mahama’s reemergence has been nothing short of consequential,” he noted in an article.
Nuacoo Nunoo highlighted the administration’s efforts to rebuild trust in Ghana’s economic management, citing swift policy actions, enhanced transparency, and engagement with stakeholders.
“The government has begun to rebuild trust in Ghana’s economic management… a leadership committed not only to restoring investor confidence but also to laying the groundwork for sustainable and inclusive growth,” he stated.
The banker also commended the administration’s focus on social welfare programs, including the recapitalization of the Livelihood Empowerment Against Poverty (LEAP) initiative and the restoration of teacher and nursing trainee allowances.
“The president has reemphasized technical and vocational training… a roadmap for aligning education with industry has begun rolling out in earnest,” he added.
While acknowledging challenges ahead, Nuacoo Nunoo praised the administration’s intent, direction, and tone.
“President Mahama has demonstrated clarity of purpose… Ghana appears to be on a new trajectory, one rooted in realism, tempered by past lessons, and driven by a renewed sense of urgency”.
“Chale, John Mahama has only been President for four months, but it already feels like the system is free,” he asserted.
