Speaking after the address, Ayariga acknowledged the economic difficulties facing the country but highlighted the hope and reassurance that President Mahama’s speech has provided.
“Mr. Speaker, what has happened to our economy and our country, and the presentation that has been made, says it all. It is sad. It is unfortunate, but His Excellency the President has brought us hope,” he stated.
He emphasized that the president’s message resonated with various groups, including youth, women, Okada riders, the private sector, students, and ordinary Ghanaians. According to him, the widespread support for Mahama’s leadership reflects the trust and confidence people have in his vision.
“Mr. Speaker, we have no doubt that everything outlined here gives hope, and this house will support His Excellency to deliver on his commitment,” he affirmed.
Ayariga also stressed the importance of accountability, insisting that those responsible for Ghana’s economic challenges must be held accountable.
“More importantly, this house will support His Excellency to deliver on the promise of accountability. Those who so damage our economy must be held accountable,” he declared.
