The Member of Parliament for Ofoase/Ayirebi, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, has reaffirmed the Minority’s commitment to thoroughly scrutinizing the 2025 budget to ensure it delivers maximum benefits to Ghanaians.

Speaking ahead of the 2025 budget presentation by Finance Minister Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, scheduled for Tuesday, March 11, 2025, Oppong Nkrumah emphasized Parliament’s primary responsibility to critically assess the government’s commitments, programs, and corresponding budgets to guarantee their effectiveness and sustainability.

“Our job as Parliament is to examine the commitments/programs and to examine the budgets for each of them. Our job is to assess, make recommendations, and, in the end, approve the policy and the budget,” he stated.

The former Information Minister in a post on Facebook emphasized that the Minority will hold the government accountable and ensure that promises made to Ghanaians are fulfilled.

“We will bring to bear the knowledge we’ve acquired in government, the lessons from what went right and wrong in our era, and the feedback from our constituents in our assessment and approvals.”

Oppong Nkrumah further stressed the importance of transitioning from political rhetoric to practical governance to address national challenges.

“It’s good that finally the propaganda is going to give way to governance programs that can respond to the outstanding challenges our people face. We in the minority will do our part to help these programs succeed for the people of Ghana,” he added.

273 economic promises; the budget is the beginning.

Tuesday, March 11, 2025. The NDC led government of Ghana will present its first economic policy and budget to Parliament.

It is the true beginning of the administration’s work where policy and funding are made available for work to commence.

The new administration made some 273 economic commitments ahead of the last election. On Tuesday, the administration will present to Parliament the first set of commitments (out of the 273) which it intends to fulfill in year 1.

Our job as Parliament is to examine the commitments/programs and to examine the budgets for each of them. Our job is to assess, make recommendations, and, in the end, approve the policy and the budget.

We will bring to bear the knowledge we’ve acquired in government, the lessons from what went right and wrong in our era, and the feedback from our constituents in our assessment and approvals.

It’s good that finally the propaganda is going to give way to governance programs that can respond to the outstanding challenges our people face. We in the minority will do our part to help these programs succeed for the people of Ghana.
