Support Those Who Propose Long-Term Solutions to Our Challenges—Dr. Owusu Ansah
Dr. Owusu Ansah, a senior lecturer at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, stated on the Kessben Amansan Ntie show that Ghanaians should support political parties that propose sustainable, long-term solutions to the country’s challenges.
He urged citizens to reject parties that merely talk about existing issues without offering viable paths to resolution.
According to Dr. Ansah, a recurring problem in Ghana’s politics is the tendency of politicians to focus on increasing societal challenges rather than addressing them effectively.
“I understand there are challenges, but for the sake of the future of our children, we need to think beyond our immediate needs,” he emphasized. “Since 1992, we have repeated the same cycle, which has not yielded meaningful progress.”
Dr. Ansah praised the digitalization agenda championed by Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, urging Ghanaians to embrace it as a critical step toward aligning with the global economy.
“The world has evolved from a global village into a global economy driven by digitalization. We must adapt to this reality rather than focusing solely on immediate satisfaction,” he noted.
Reflecting on the ongoing political campaigns, he observed that while some parties present futuristic policies, others are preoccupied with addressing temporary concerns. He expressed concern that this shortsightedness has hindered Africa’s progress.
Dr. Ansah concluded by urging Ghanaians to critically evaluate the policies of various political parties, emphasizing the importance of planning and prioritizing sustainable development for the continent’s future. “We need to sit down as Africans and plan for our lives,” he stressed.
