Convention People’s Party (CPP) has urged Ghanaians to rally behind President John Dramani Mahama’s vision to reset the country, calling for national reflection, review, and rebuilding of the economy.

According to the party, the initiative outlined by President Mahama will benefit all Ghanaians, regardless of political affiliation, creed, or ideology, if successfully implemented.

In a statement issued on Thursday, March 6, the CPP commended the president for his decision to scale down the 68th Independence Anniversary Commemoration, saving the nation GHS13.5 million an amount they stated represents 90% of the previous cost.

The CPP noted that during the 66th Independence Anniversary in 2023, it had called for a boycott of Independence Day celebrations until the country was in a better state.

The party added that even as far back as the 55th Independence Anniversary in 2012, prominent CPP members had made similar calls, launching both social media campaigns and street engagements to advocate for change.

“The initiative to scale down the Independence Celebrations, as part of the reset agenda by His Excellency President John Dramani Mahama, is indeed laudable,” the statement read.

The CPP further highlighted a significant moment during the recent National Economic Dialogue organized by the State, where a key admission was made at the opening plenary. Speakers acknowledged that the economic success of the First Republic under the CPP remains unmatched to this day and should be a model for the nation’s progress.

“This was indeed a humbling admission, and the CPP is proud to have set a high standard of positive achievements during its time in power,” the statement added.
