Ghana a country in a West Africa Sub Region, which shares border with Togo, Burkina Faso and Cote d’Ivoire. It has a population of about 30 million (2021) with capital per income of 2200 dollars. In the past two and half decade it has taken major stripes in democracy and has enjoyed peaceful and successful elections for decades now. It is one of the most peaceful and stable country in the West African Region with higher regards to human right and rule of law. Ghana is a country with several valuable resources such as gold, bauxite, timber, oil, gas, iron ore etc.

As time sweeps on from childhood, I have always led my group not because of the prestige or probably of the gains but I'm always influenced by the love for humanity and my passion to see the goodness of others. This passion for the welfare of humanity have never stopped me from dreaming of becoming a president to restore the goodwill of the people in my country. My ambition of becoming the president is grounded on some major critical problems ( challenges) that the country is confronted with of which I'm determined to deal with when the time is right.
As a patriotic citizen I'm always overwhelmed with the negative effects of these predicament.
First and foremost, one major problem my country faces today is

FINANCIAL CRISIS

financial crises which of cause I believe is a major issue not only in my country. However the rate at which this has become insurmountable has always set my heart ablaze. In fact, a careful analysis of the major cause of this challenge is corruption which has indeed poison the hearts of our leaders in governance. This purportedly an idea that a the winner takes it all. They therefore neglect the abilities in expense win and take. Like the saying goes " in a corruptible society, the honest found it difficult to live with" This ordeal is causing the good people of my country in despair.This has since been a focal determinate of the difficulties this country goes through in terms of abandoned projects, judgement debts and so on. In fact, this daily act of corruption is causing a lot of insecurities in this country. I will intensify the office of the special prosecutor, whoever indulge in corrupt act will be prosecuted.

UNEMPLOYMENT

Majority of the country’s population are youth and the average age in the state is 23 years, in 2021 the percentage of unemployment rate in the country is 12% of the labor force, unemployment rate are the labor forces actively looking for job at the existing wage rate but are not getting jobs. the rate of unemployment has been on the rise for the past three years and still counting, this year about 500 thousand students are expected to graduate, adding up to the state unemployment.

As a president of Ghana solving unemployment in the country will be the up most priority of my administration. These are some of the policies I will adopt to help reduce the unemployment rate in the country.

Adopting good fiscal policies, thus my administration will exercise fiscal discipline by cutting the country fiscal deficit through reduction of compensation, payment of interest rate and raising of government revenue etc., this will give us fiscal space to spend on education, infrastructure and health care etc., this will help drive private investment into the manufacturing sector of the economy.

My administration will also promote the country to international tourist as a tourist destination hub, by advertising the various tourist sites like kakum national park, Elmina castle, cape coast castle etc., on the international communication network platforms such as CCN, fox news, BBC and internet etc., tourism is one of the sectors of the economy creating employment in this era because of the rapidly growing of the world economy hence increasing disposable income around the world which they can spend on tourism. Tourism can creates employment through accommodations, restaurants, transportation, tourist guide, selling of local artifacts etc. For Ghana to reduce unemployment, it has to create around 1 million every year for the next decade .

RURAL URBAN MIGRATION

This is another alarming problem facing the country right now, the rate at which people are migrating to the urban centers in the country is increasing every year for the past five years, causing over population, high pressure on the city infrastructure, and unemployment in the cities. As a president, my administration will address the root cause of these problem by developing the agricultural sector in the rural areas, provision of modern health care facilities and provision of educational infrastructures etc.

LOW QUALITY OF HEALTH CARE

As a president of Ghana addressing health issue will be of great importance to my administration because in the absence of high quality health care there will be inadequate healthy labor which will delay the development of the country. The hospitals in ghana are not well equipped, at times patient has to be sent to other countries to receive treatment. I will invest in the health sector by providing the requisite equipment required by hospitals, the use of technologies to solve problems will be enhanced and also research in the health sector will be improved by providing adequate funds to facilitate it.
