The Founder and Senior Partner of AB and David Africa, David Ofosu-Dorte has called on Ghana’s political leaders to shift their focus from personal gains to meaningful development for the people.
Delivering a keynote address at the Swedru Conversations, he challenged the current political leadership model, urging leaders to prioritise progress over power.
Mr Ofosu-Dorte traced Ghana’s leadership evolution from traditional chieftaincy to modern-day political governance, highlighting how leadership has shaped the nation.
He criticised leaders who merely occupy positions without driving real change and emphasised the need for a people-centered approach to governance.
He noted that political progress is often hindered by those who benefit from outdated systems, those with innovative ideas who fail to act, and the masses who resist change out of fear or loyalty.
He urged leaders to confront these obstacles with boldness and a genuine commitment to national development.
Mr Ofosu-Dorte also questioned the blind reliance on private sector-led growth, arguing that state-owned enterprises, when managed effectively, could play a crucial role in national development.
He called for a more balanced economic strategy that ensures sustainable progress.
He stressed the need for unity, collaboration, and leadership that puts the people first.
