Robert Andzie Ansah, the Chief Executive Officer of Save Ghana Movement, a non-governmental organization, has called on Ghanaians to adopt a positive attitude and nurture patriotism to drive nation-building.

In an exclusive interview with Apiah-Kubi on Fabea FM's "Me Man Ho Dadwen" show, Andzie attributed Ghana's persistent problems to a lack of positive attitude and patriotism.

"We've been stuck with these problems for far too long, and it's time for a change," he said.

Citing Article 1 (1) of the 1992 constitution of Ghana, he emphasized the people's role in exercising government powers for their welfare.

Andzie emphasized that infrastructure development, such as roads, schools, and hospitals, is not enough to drive growth. "What matters most is the change in people's lives, which can only be achieved through positive attitudes, thinking, and verbal outreach towards development," he added.

He expressed concern that despite Ghana's independence, many problems remain unsolved due to lack of patriotism and willpower to transform the country.

"It's worrying that the problems we're trying to address persist, and politicians are taking the people for granted," Andzie lamented.

He stressed that changing attitudes in governance, the media, and citizenship would accelerate development by exhibiting responsible citizenship towards the country's development and success.

Andzie urged Ghanaians to look beyond partisan politics and work towards a common goal to tackle the country's challenges. "Until we understand that our problems can't be solved along party lines, we'll continue to struggle," he stressed.

He concluded that a united approach and positive attitudes are essential for Ghana's development and progress.

"We are our own failures. Until we change our attitude towards the country, development will remain elusive", he opined.
