Renowned satirist, Kwaku Sintim-Misa, popularly known as KSM, has shared his views on the concept of a 24-hour economy in Ghana.
Speaking on Starr Chat with Bola Ray, KSM stressed the importance of achieving economic stability before implementing such a system.
According to KSM, Ghana’s current economic conditions are not conducive to support a 24-hour economy. He stated, “I think the idea of a 24-hour economy is great and good to know that around the clock we are working and the economy will be moving. But my advice to Mahama is to understand that a 24-hour economy is possible and recommended when the economy is running.”
He further added, “There is an economy that is booming, but where we are now, we are going in reverse. You must stop the reverse, make it stable, and fix everything that you need to fix then let’s start moving forward.”
In order to achieve a successful 24-hour economy, KSM emphasized the need for former President John Dramani Mahama to prioritize stabilizing the current struggling economy.
He urged, “You have to set the economy on a firm footing, the economy is now like a free fall. I am not making these statements as a politician, I am making these statements as a concerned citizen of Ghana, who is seeing things. I lived it and I know and saying that we need to stop the free fall.”
