Prominent legal practitioner and political analyst, Kwame Jantuah, has advised President-elect John Dramani Mahama to prioritize managing public expectations as he prepares to assume office.
According to Jantuah on , it is crucial for Mahama to communicate clearly to Ghanaians that the implementation of his policies will be a gradual process rather than a quick fix. Speaking in a recent interview on TV3, Jantuah highlighted the importance of transparency in governance to maintain public trust.
“The President-elect has a duty to ensure that Ghanaians are well-informed about the realistic timeline for his policies. It’s important for people to understand that these changes will not happen overnight,” Jantuah stated.
He added that managing expectations early will not only foster patience among the populace but also allow the administration to focus on sustainable development rather than short-term solutions.
John Dramani Mahama, who recently won the 2024 elections, campaigned on a platform of economic recovery, job creation, 24-hour eocnomy, and infrastructure development. As he prepares to assume leadership, analysts have underscored the need for effective communication to bridge the gap between campaign promises and practical governance.
