“Our leaders have stabbed our dreams with their greed and buried our hopes with their mediocrity and if we continue down this path it will cost us another 60 years; we don’t have another 60 years.
“As I come before you, I feel your frustration because the systems don’t work,” Mr Gane stated.
“I am here to put Ghana first because Ghana deserves better! Because you deserve better! Because we deserve better,” he said in the four-minute video posted on the social media network.
“Our generation is a bridge, the only remaining bridge between the truncated dreams of our forebears and the eager hopes of posterity unborn. We have no choice but to disrupt every faulty status quo and make Ghana work for all of us.
“It is a grave burden that will demand more from all of us collectively. God has indeed blessed our homeland Ghana. It is we, who must now make her Great and Strong,” he added.
“He is an International Development expert with vast experiences managing global innovation and development funds, meaning he understands how the world and development work and how to strategically position Ghana within it,” he added.
