Engineer Dr. Dzabaku Kudiabor Ocansey, Executive Director, Center for National Interest and Research (CNIR-GH), has urged the citizenry to support the country's development goals in 2025 and beyond.
In a new year message, the Organisation encouraged the populace to prioritise national interest over personal and political party affiliations to help build a "prosperous, inclusive, and resilient Ghana".
"Ghana needs professionals from all fields who will stand their ground for fairness and progress of the national interest... We can't succeed as a country if we continue to have heads or institutions that are more loyal to political parties and governments than the State.
"As we embark on this new year, let us endeavour to build a society full of opportunities for everyone to succeed.
"A new Ghana where everyone feels a sense of belonging, irrespective of their political affiliations or tribes....A society where you don't need to only occupy political office to be rich," he stated.
Dr. Ocansey emphasised a shift from "extreme partisan politics" and "divisiveness" to a paradigm "where everyone has access to equal opportunities".
