President John Dramani Mahama

The Spain Branch of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) has lauded the Mahama-led administration for what it describes as effective economic management and the successful implementation of key campaign promises.

In a statement issued by the branch secretary, Hanson Dartey, the party expressed confidence in the government's direction, citing tangible progress in both economic stability and social interventions.

Among the flagship initiatives earning praise is the government’s recently launched “No-Academic-Fee” policy introduced for the 2025 academic year.

The policy seeks to eliminate academic facility user fees for tertiary students, easing financial burdens and expanding access to higher education.

“This initiative is a bold step toward equitable education,” Dartey said. “It is helping many students who would otherwise be left behind due to financial constraints.”

The NDC Spain Branch also highlighted impressive economic achievements under the current administration, including:

$5 billion in revenue: The Ghana Gold Board has reportedly generated $5 billion in just six months, a development credited to improved management and strategic reforms.

Stabilization of the cedi: The influx of revenue has contributed to a more stable local currency, offering relief to businesses and consumers alike.

“These figures reflect prudent economic leadership and a renewed sense of direction in managing the country’s natural resources,” Mr. Dartey stated.

According to the branch, the Mahama government has so far fulfilled nearly 70% of its campaign pledges—a signal of its commitment to good governance and accountability.

Dartey commended the government’s efforts in addressing the pressing needs of Ghanaians and called on citizens to support the administration’s development agenda.

The commendation from the NDC Spain Branch adds to growing endorsements of the Mahama-led government’s performance. The branch believes that with the continued implementation of people-centred policies, Ghanaians will experience further improvements in both economic and social sectors.
