The Ghana News Agency reproduces the President’s full statement: “A year ago today, on 7 December, Ghana spoke with one powerful voice. As I reflect on that historic day, I am filled with profound gratitude and renewed determination. I remember the anxiety, the hope, and the unwavering faith of millions of Ghanaians who stood in those voting queues, determined to reclaim our future. Thank you, Ghanaians. You believed in the promise of a #ResettingGhana agenda. You trusted in our collective vision to ‘Build the Ghana We Want’. 

To the rank and file of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), you were the heartbeat of this victory. To our polling agents who stood guard at every polling station, you were our eyes and ears, our “own referees” as I called for. That clarion call to go to the polls with “our own referee” was exactly what it needed to be. That was a strategy to demobilise the plans of the Electoral Commission and neutralise the then ruling New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) calculated attempts to subvert the will of the people. Your vigilance turned the tide. 

To our party executives, our election management team, our communications team, our operations team, our strategy team, and our campaign team, ayekoo! Your pre-election strategies laid the foundation for election-day tactics that proved unshakeable. You anticipated every move, countered every scheme, and ensured that the voice of the people could not be silenced. 

Today, I renew my pledge to every Ghanaian that we are building a Ghana for All our people, without discrimination, without exclusion, without favouritism. The Ghana We Want is not a dream deferred but a promise in progress. My commitment to the #ResettingGhana agenda remains steadfast, and Vice President Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang and our government will work every day to create opportunities, restore hope, and rebuild trust in our institutions. 

To my NDC family, hold on tight. Your reward is not just in positions or appointments, but in the Ghana we are building together, delivering a Ghana where your children will have opportunities, where justice prevails, and where hard work is rewarded. The journey continues. The work goes on. Thank you, Ghana. Thank you, NDC.”
