These are global phenomena,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The President continued, \u201cNonetheless, Government continues to work hard to address these issues, and I am certain that, sooner, rather than later, our economy, through the implementation of Government\u2019s one hundred-billion-cedi (GH\u00a2100 billion) Ghana CARES Obaatanpa Programme, will rebound from the ravages of the pandemic, bringing in its wake stability, development, progress and prosperity for all Ghanaians.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking at the 92nd Speech and Prize-Giving Day of St. Augustine\u2019s College in Cape Coast, on Saturday, 19th March 2021, President Akufo-Addo noted that the Ghanaian economy grew at a provisional 5.2% in the first three quarters of 2021, with GDP growth for 2021 projected at 5.6%, as against the 0.4% of 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe need to undertake the difficult but necessary fiscal and other measures that will enable us to maintain the 2021 and higher rates of growth in the immediate years ahead of us, to develop and strengthen our economy, and help improve the living standards of us all,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Democracy<br>Touching on the country\u2019s democratic credentials, President Akufo-Addo noted that the Ghanaian people, for these last twenty-nine (29) years of the 4th Republic, have reposed their trust in the democratic process as the avenue to resolve the myriad of problems the country faces, and have demonstrated their determination to uphold democratic values and institutions to bring development to the nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere are a few, though, whom I have characterised as \u201crestless spirits\u201d, who are not prepared to allow you to complete your education in conditions of calm, peace and stability, and who seek constant turbulence in the governance of the state. This has led, lately, to some irresponsible utterances about coups as panaceas to our problems,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He continued, \u201cI have said, and will use this platform to repeat that coups have never been, and will never be durable solutions to the political, economic and security challenges confronting our nation and continent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The President was confident that the great majority of Ghanaians, who are committed to democratic values and democratic institutions, \u201cwill continue to resist the rhetoric and advances of coup mongers and coup plotters, and those of us who have the responsibility to safeguard the integrity of the state will employ all legitimate means in a democracy to preserve our free, open system of governance, which is respectful of human rights, the rule of law and the principles of democratic accountability.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SEND A STORY:<\/strong>\u00a0Do you have a story for us or need a promotion\/advertisement?
