Former President John Dramani Mahama engaged with residents of Bukom in a lively town hall meeting, where he discussed issues of concern and responded to pressing questions from the audience. The event, part of his broader campaign strategy ahead of the upcoming elections, saw Mahama expressing gratitude for the warm reception his campaign has received across various regions, including Tamale and the Upper East. Key Points Addressed by Mahama: 1. Economic Growth and Tax Reforms Responding to concerns about the high tax burden on businesses, Mahama outlined his plans to alleviate these challenges by introducing tax waivers and expanding markets for Ghanaian products through export trade under agreements like the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). He acknowledged that these changes would not occur overnight but emphasized that they would set the foundation for long-term economic growth.
