Mahama Unleashes Ghana’s Economic Reset: A People-Powered Revolution Begins
Ahmed M. Gedel Writes:
Aspiring MCE for Ayawaso East Municipality
On behalf of every citizen who dreams of a better Ghana, I rise to salute the courage, clarity, and compassion of His Excellency John Dramani Mahama a leader who has once again proven that governance is not about burdening the people, but liberating them.
At the Jubilee House on April 2, 2025, President Mahama signed into law eight groundbreaking bills a legislative masterstroke that signals a bold economic reset and a direct assault on fiscal injustice and bureaucratic inefficiency.
These laws don’t just tweak the system they reimagine it.
Gone are the regressive taxes that squeezed ordinary Ghanaians under Nana-Addo and Bawumia governance.The infamous E-Levy, the Emissions Tax, and the Betting Withholding Levies. In their place, Mahama offers relief, fairness, and economic empowerment.
The reforms slash hidden costs on essentials like vehicle insurance, remove barriers in the gold trading sector, and free up funding for education, health, roads, and jobs. Under the revised petroleum revenue framework, every drop of oil money now flows directly into Mahama’s Big Push infrastructure agenda, ensuring tangible development in every corner of the country.
Meanwhile, a newly minted Fiscal Council will keep the nation’s finances in check, enforcing transparency and fiscal discipline where it has long been lacking.
Most notably, the establishment of the Gold Board marks a strategic move to bring sanity, structure, and sovereignty to Ghana’s gold economy turning lost wealth into national gain.
These reforms are not promises. They are proof etched into law by a leader who believes that real power belongs to the people.
What Mahama has delivered is not just legislative change; it is a revolution of economic justice, a dismantling of elitist tax structures, and a resurrection of hope for the market woman, the driver, the student, and the struggling family.
This is the NDC difference governance that listens, leadership that acts, and vision that touches the grassroots.
In a time of doubt, Mahama has drawn a line in the sand and declared that Ghana will not be governed by hardship, but by dignity.
*Ayekoo, Mr. President. Ayekoo, NDC.*
The people see you. The people feel you. And the people are ready to rise with you.
Signed…
Dr. Ahmed M. Gedel
Nima Citizen.
Reformer. Believer in People-Centered Power.
