Ghana’s President John Dramani Mahama will today face Parliament to give an account of his stewardship for the past one year.
The agitations on the labour front for better conditions of service are expected to feature in his State of the Nation Address to the House.
Today’s presentation comes at a time of heightened insecurity in parts of Ghana due to communal clashes between Fulani indigenes.
It will be his last state of the nation address before the November 7 general elections.
As required by the constitution, the president will be updating parliament on the state of the economy and the policies in place to fix the challenges confronting the country.
He will also update the nation on the status of Ghana’s performance since it entered into a three-year financial bailout agreement with the International Monetary fund. Paramount among the expectations are measures put in place to ensure a smooth and credible elections.
