Nduom to offer solutions to ailing economy @ PPP Anniversary Lecture

The Founder and Presidential candidate of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP), Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom believes there are solutions to Ghana’s ailing economy which has left many Ghanaians in agonizing hardship.

According to him, Ghanaians must contribute thoughts that will help revamp the economy from its sick bed.

“As I have often put across, we Ghanaians must begin to learn to be experts at finding solutions and implementing them and leave behind our expertise and knowledge of the problems,” he posted on Facebook.

Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom however hinted that, in some couple of days, he will deliver a lecture with the aim to offer solutions to the problems the Mahama-led administration is facing.

On his Facebook wall, the business mogul posted previews of his ideology to the state for consideration.

Below is a preview of what Papa Kwesi Nduom will be discussing during his lecture…:

Here is of what I will discuss in more detail in early August this year:

  1. We must develop the rural economy. (I will explain how we should do it including constitutional amendment to free up grassroots initiative.)


  2. An efficient, independent public service is a prerequisite.


  3. A single national identification is needed to bring the discipline needed to cast a strong foundation for prosperity.


  4. Use of the state's purchasing power.


  5. An educated labour pool armed with technology.
