In a recent interview on GTV’s Manifesto Watch Kwesi Adarkwah, spokesperson for the Convention People’s Party (CPP), laid out an ambitious vision for Ghana’s future under a CPP government. The proposals cover areas such as urban housing, industrialization, agriculture, and constitutional reforms.
Adarkwah highlighted the party’s focus on mass housing, pledging to harmonize the nation’s housing database and reduce costs by purchasing building materials in bulk. The CPP also supports state ownership of assets to drive national development.
On industrialization, the party is committed to export-led growth, aiming to boost Ghana’s trade and self-reliance. Additionally, the CPP plans to streamline governance by reducing the number of districts to 100 and ensuring that District Chief Executives (DCEs) are elected, rather than appointed, to promote a more decentralized political system.
The CPP’s judicial reforms include limiting the tenure of Supreme Court judges and advertising vacancies for these positions. They also propose reducing the number of Members of Parliament to 100. A major constitutional overhaul is also on the agenda, aimed at curbing executive power and reforming electoral financing.
Adarkwah concluded by asserting that despite its past ban, the CPP’s progressive policies could bring them back to the forefront of Ghana’s political scene.
