A leading member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr Dan Botwe, has noted that a lot could be achieved in Ghana within a short time if leaders took vital crucial decisions and persisted in seeing them through.
Speaking to reporters during a brief visit to Ho, Mr Botwe said many people in leadership positions were either reluctant or lacked the confidence to take crucial decisions to transform the environment around them.
He said the problem confronting Ghana was not so much the lack of resources to achieve significant results, but lack of the resolve by leadership to dare the challenges that came up from time to time.
Mr Botwe, a former Minister of Information, said while in office, his priorities were to re-energize the Ghana News Agency (GNA), the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC) and the Ghana Institute of Journalism (GIJ) to enable them perform their crucial roles as vital institutions of state.
He said he had ensured that vehicles were procured for 10 Regional Offices of the GNA, adding that there were plans to provide motorbikes for the Agency's District Offices as well as Internet facilities.
He said GBC was also in dire need of new equipment which were procured and that after more than 10 years of struggling, the GIJ was elevated to a tertiary status and placed under the Ministry of Education so as to be able to access the GETFUND.
