I completely agree with the statement. The private sector is indeed a crucial driver of sustainable economic growth and development in Ghana. However, to fully unleash its potential, it's essential to relax certain regulations imposed by public sector regulators that slow down the requested growth. Overly stringent regulations can stifle innovation, hinder competition, and create unnecessary barriers to entry for new businesses and for existing business to scale up. By streamlining and simplifying regulatory processes and the introduction of incentives the government can create a more conducive environment for private sector growth. This can include reducing bureaucracy, eliminating redundant regulations, and increasing transparency in regulatory decision-making. By doing so, the government can help unlock the private sector's full potential, drive economic growth, and create opportunities for Ghanaians. As Yofi Grant emphasized, establishing a strong foundation that fosters private sector growth is critical. Relaxing certain regulations can help create this foundation, allowing the private sector to thrive and contribute to Ghana's sustainable economic development. #privatesectorgrowth
