Here are some highlights from Akufo-Addo's 3rd state of the Nation's Address:
- The creation of the 6 new regions is going to open up the country and create more opportunities.
- In addition to the creation of 38 MDAs, the way is being paved for the elections of MMDCEs.
- We intend to introduce measures that will ensure that we have the firmest foundations for the economic takeoff that has eluded us for so long.
- The fight against child labour has chalked some moderate success. Ghana has moved up from on the trafficking watchlist.
- Our ports remain national assets we must manage them to improve trade for the benefit of Ghanaians.
- Poverty should not be an excuse for any.
- The Saglemi Housing project started by the NDC is high on our list of priorities this year. The 5, 000 units it offers will boost our housing situation.
- Drone technology has been introduced into the health system for the delivery of medical products and blood while we're expecting the delivery of 275 ambulances in June.
- Plans in place to avert perennial flooding of Bagre dam spillage.
