The national address that Ghanaians call “SONA 2021” will see Prez Akufo-Addo roll out a roadmap for Ghana over the next four years.

But what are some of the key things the leader of the West African nation wants to talk about in his address?

A major feature of de Akufo-Addo’s speech today is how he is leading the fight against Covid-19.

I will be after Ghana receives the first batch of 600,000 AstraZeneca vaccines.

He’s going to roll out deeper plans that the government is working on, let’s say it, stop the spread of the pandemic.

According to the Ghana Health Service, as of March 9, some 200,000 Ghanaians have been vaccinated since they began vaccination on March 2, 2021.

Another issue that is emerging today is the need for further cooperation between the executive arm of government den the legislature.

Say be the key to the nature of the Ghanaian parliament which we almost verify as a suspended parliament.

Also, for the first time under the Fourth Republic, the Speaker of Parliament must be a member of the opposition.

For the sake of saying, Akufo-Addo will try to encourage the deputies [MPs] tell dem to cooperate more on decision making in the interest of Ghana.

President Akufo-Addo will implement an economic stimulus plan for Ghana within the next four years.

You have to know how Covid-19 is affecting Ghana’s economy last year.

During his first term, Mr. Akufo-Addo announced a Ghana Beyond Aid program.

No clear and precise economic agenda, it will follow the clock but Ghanaians hope the economy will create jobs and opportunities for citizens.
