Abdul-Nasser Suglo Alidu, Chief Programme Officer of the 24-hour Economy and Accelerated Export Development Secretariat in Ghana, has publicly defended the government's 24-hour economy policy. This defense comes in response to criticism leveled by Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP). The 24-hour economy policy is a key initiative of the current government, aimed at boosting economic activity through extended operating hours for businesses. Suglo Alidu asserts the policy’s potential for growth and job creation. The exchange highlights a growing debate within the NPP regarding the merits of the new economic strategy. This public disagreement underscores the political tensions surrounding the implementation of the 24-hour economy in Ghana.
