The decay is massive – Bagbin backs Mahama’s recovery agenda

Following President Mahama’s first State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Thursday, February 27, Bagbin took to Facebook to share his thoughts.

He painted a stark picture of the country’s decline but found optimism in the president’s roadmap for recovery.

“Clearly, our country is not in good shape. The decay is massive. Ghana, an African icon, is at our lowest point. But the address of President John Dramani Mahama is rejuvenating.

“It’s stimulating confidence about quick recovery, resetting, and restoration to a more rewarding investment climate and social justice,” he wrote.

The Speaker, a known advocate for marginalized communities, was particularly moved by one key policy: the government’s pledge to make tertiary education free for persons with disabilities.

“As a passionate advocate for persons with disabilities, I am particularly happy about the bold move of Government to make tertiary education free for persons considered disabled,” he added.

This pronouncement aligns with Bagbin’s long-standing commitment to social equity, as he has consistently pushed for reforms that support vulnerable groups in Ghana.
