Signalling a bold departure from decades of economic dependency, Ghanaian President John Dramani Mahama delivered a high-stakes address to the National Assembly of Zambia on the 5^th of February, 2026, unveiling a visionary blueprint he termed the “Accra Reset.”

Speaking when he addressed the National Assembly, Mahama challenged African leaders to move beyond political goodwill and secure genuine economic emancipation by asserting sovereignty over their natural resources and domesticating financial reserves.
