The Presidential Advisor on the 24-hour economy, Mr. Augustus Goosie Obuodum Tanoh has disclosed that the 24-hour initiative would be launched on Wednesday 2nd July 2025.
He stated that the program is designed to transform production with agriculture as its main anchor to develop the nations value chain so that we are able to achieve greater productivity. He went on to say that the programme is made up of three angles that is Production transformation, Supply chain and market efficiency and human development.
This was made known when the 24-hour economy office at the Presidency paid a courtesy call to the RT Hon. Speaker Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin. The delegation led by its Presidential Advisor Mr. Augustus Obuodum Tandoh were present to submit the 24-hour economy and accelerated export development programme to the RT. Hon Speaker.
Mr. Tandoh noted that to make this initiative work, the three angles will be supported by some subgroups “Grow 24 which is the agricultural component, Make 24 which is the manufacturing component, Connect 24 which is the Supply chain component, Aspire 24 which is the Mindset change, that’s resetting the Ghanaian.” As part of Aspire 24, the government will also include a strong digital technology training to the TVET curriculum to provide employment opportunities.
He said there’s also a component dubbed “Show Ghana” will be included to highlight Ghana’s vibrant culture to the diaspora, adding that the goal is to bring in more tourists and boost income through tourism.
The RT Hon Speaker in his remarks stated that there are lots of opportunities interms of employment.

This would ensure the policy continues to be implemented, even if there’s a change in government, he added.
