Ghanaian President Calls for Urgent Action on African Economic Sovereignty at AU Summit

Speaking at the Accra Reset side event during the 39th AU Assembly in Addis Ababa, John Dramani Mahama urged his African colleagues to move beyond prolonged discussions and fast-track implementation of key continental frameworks.

Key proposals from Mahama:

🟠Establish conflict-free mineral certification regimes

🟠Promote deeper regional value addition

🟠Strengthen pan-African payment and financial systems to facilitate intra-continental trade

Africa's growth must be anchored in competitive local industries, transparent resource governance, and stronger value chains, the president stressed.

The Accra Reset initiative prioritizes self-reliance, industrial transformation, and strategic economic cooperation among member states, according to officials.
