Prior to the event, Ghanaians have accused the Vice President of being silent on topical issues such as the cedi’s decline against major trading currencies, passage of the Electronic Transfer Levy among others.
The year began with an array of economic and social challenges in Ghana with key rating agencies downgrading the economy and investors resorting to making their investments in other nations.
Government on its part has insisted that a number of factors including the coronavirus pandemic, and ongoing tensions in Europe have impacted on the country's economic situation.
However, the much-awaited address by the Vice President, Dr Bawumia is expected to touch on some of these factors and government's measures to mitigate them.
Other speakers expected at the event are First Lady, Rebecca Akufo-Addo, Chairman of the New Patriotic Party, Freddie Blay among others.
The conference is being organised by the NPP Youth Wing in collaboration with the Danquah Institute, a pro-NPP policy Tink-Tank.
Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia
