The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) will deliver what it calls the "True State of the Nation Address" on Tuesday, March 4, 2025.
This follows President John Dramani Mahama's State of the Nation Address (SONA) delivered on February 27, 2025, which the NPP argues failed to address key national concerns and misrepresented Ghana's current state.
In a statement dated February 28, the NPP criticized President Mahama for not providing a thorough and accurate evaluation of the country's progress since assuming office on January 7, 2025.
The party pointed to several critical issues it claims were ignored in the President's speech, including worsening power supply, escalating security threats, increasing illegal mining, and a deepening employment crisis. "In light of this, the NPP, through its leadership in Parliament, led by Alexander Afenyo-Markin, will deliver the True State of the Nation Address to present Ghanaians with a factual and objective assessment of the country's situation," the statement read.
