Member of Parliament for Walewale, Abdul Kabiru Tiah Mahama, has commended the National Economic Dialogue (NED) for promoting participatory governance but has also pointed out its shortcomings, particularly the lack of a structured approach.
Speaking on Newsfile on JoyNews, the MP acknowledged the importance of inclusive governance, stating that seeking input from various stakeholders was a step in the right direction. "I think that the intention around this whole economic dialogue is a good one.
It is good in the sense that governance from a participatory perspective is good and a virtue," he said.
However, Mahama was critical of how the dialogue was conducted, arguing that the government should have provided a clearer framework rather than leaving discussions open-ended. "When you are given a mandate to rule, you come with very clear interventions.
