Of that, between $300 and $400 million will come from the government.<\/p>\n<p>The rest will be mobilised from the private sector, and I\u2019m happy to report that pledges are already nearing $2 billion,\u201d Mr. Tanoh stated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Programme Targets 1.7 Million Jobs <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The 24H+ programme is designed to operate across strategic value chains, including agro-processing, textiles, pharmaceuticals, logistics, and renewable energy, by promoting continuous production cycles beyond the conventional 8-hour workday.<\/p>\n<p>The government aims to create 1.7 million jobs within four years, particularly for youth and women.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis policy reflects the collective aspirations of Ghanaians,\u201d Mr. Tanoh noted. \u201cIt is not just a partisan agenda, but a national development strategy shaped by extensive consultations across all regions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Tanoh called on Ghanaians to rally behind the programme, urging a national shift in mindset.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>\u201cThe time has come for us to reject poverty and embrace the enormous economic potential we possess. Ghana is ready to work\u201424 hours a day\u2014for a better future,\u201d he declared.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Explaining the concept to the media, Dr. Abdul-Nasser Alidu, Head of Strategy and Programmes at the 24-Hour Economy Secretariat, highlighted the urgency of the reforms.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-21167\" src=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-06-30-at-19.37.10_437d1bbd.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"432\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cGhana has experienced economic growth, but it is not translating into jobs,\u201d he said. \u201cIn the 1990s, a 10% GDP growth rate generated about 7% job growth. Today, that same growth produces only 2% employment gains. The 24H+ programme will fix this disconnect and ensure growth brings prosperity to ordinary Ghanaians.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key Pillars of the 24H+ Programme<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The programme features eight integrated sub-programmes which includes Grow24 that focuses on transforming agriculture and agribusiness, promotes 24-hour industrial production and manufacturing.<\/p>\n<p>The Build24 is to \u00a0support infrastructure projects like roads, energy, and logistics and Fund24 \u2013 provides innovative financing models and capital access.<\/p>\n<p>Other components include Trade24, Serve24, Tech24, and Skill24, designed to support export development, service sector expansion, technology adoption, and workforce training, respectively.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-21168\" src=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Economics-24-Hour-Funding-10-scaled-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1150\" \/><\/p>\n<p>To attract investment and encourage 24-hour operations, the government will introduce a series of incentives, including: Tax rebates of up to 50% for businesses operating round-the-clock. Import duty waivers for machinery and inputs and export performance bonuses for companies that hit productivity targets.<\/p>\n<p>The official launch event will showcase the vision behind the 24H+ initiative, with presentations from policymakers, economists, and private sector leaders, alongside interactive sessions and testimonials from successful pilot projects implemented in selected industrial zones.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Source: Felix Nyaaba\/expressnewsghana.com<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The
