Ghanaian musician Ras Kuuku recently weighed in on the debate between Vice President Bawumia’s digitalization efforts and former President John Dramani Mahama’s proposal for a 24-hour economy.
Speaking on Onua TV, Ras Kuuku expressed a strong interest in seeing Mahama’s 24-hour economy concept come to fruition, as it represents a new experience for him compared to the already ongoing digitalization process.
He noted that while digitalisation is well underway in Ghana, the 24-hour economy is a novel idea that he is eager to witness firsthand.
Ras Kuuku emphasized that his interest in the 24-hour economy is independent of political bias, stating,”For digitalisation, we have already been experiencing it. Ghana is gradually being digitized. But we haven’t seen the 24-hour economy before,” Ras Kuuku stated.
He added, “It is something I want to see, so I would like for him (Mahama) to come and implement it so I can witness it.”
As Ghana gears up for the general elections on December 7, 2024, the race will see former President John Dramani Mahama, running as the NDC flagbearer, facing off against Vice President Bawumia of the NPP, New Force Movement leader Nana Kwame Bediako, and Movement for Change leader Alan Kyerematen.
