President Akufo-Addo will today March 30 deliver the State of the Nation Address to parliament.

The presentation was postponed after it was scheduled earlier in the month.

It was previously announced that the President’s sessional address would be delivered on March 3.

The postponement led to some criticism of the Akufo-Addo administration over the delay as it wrestles with a general economic downturn.

The sessional address is constitutionally sanctioned and must be delivered in the first meeting of every session of the house.

The address sets out the government’s key policy objectives and deliverables for the year ahead.

It will give President Akufo-Addo the opportunity to highlight the achievements of his government, challenges faced and also outline developmental measures for the coming financial year.
