Mr. Speaker, I have every confidence that with all of us working together under the President's leadership, we can march forward to a Ghana beyond aid in a new, more matured, and mutually beneficial relationship with our
external partners, and advance towards our national vision of building: «An optimistic self - confident and prosperous nation, through the
creative exploitation of our human and natural resources, and operating with a democratic, open and fair society, in which mutual trust and economic opportunities exist for all».
