“Ghanaians have heard of afternoon jams, haven’t they? Being able to go to the club in the afternoon is part of the 24-hour economy,” he remarked, adding that the policy would offer greater convenience for those working night shifts or anyone wanting to relax during unconventional hours.
“It’s about being able to access certain facilities at any time of day. That’s the essence of the 24-hour economy,” Omar explained.
John Mahama’s 24-hour economy policy, introduced during the NDC’s manifesto launch in Winneba, pledges to revolutionise the hospitality sector by allowing nightclubs, restaurants, and hotels to operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
While the proposal has sparked debate on social media, Rex Omar remains a strong advocate, praising Mahama for his innovative approach to fostering economic growth.
