These demands reflect the frustrations and concerns of many Ghanaians about the current state of the country.

"A New Constitution for a New Generation: We advocate for a constitution that serves all our citizens equitably, limits the growing executive power, and ensures concrete consequences for the abuse of authority.

A new "Economic Charter and Directive Principles of State Policy": We propose a policy that is legally binding and guarantees economic dignity, liberation from poverty, and economic stability, securing conditions for every Ghanaian to truly prosper.

A "National Development Plan": The plan should be adopted through a collaborative participatory process and is expressly binding on all political actors in Ghana. It must address all necessary aspects of our country's development, including but not limited to healthcare, education, and infrastructure. The plan should include a legally binding roadmap for addressing the significant underdevelopment across the country, demonstrating a genuine commitment to #FixTheCountry."
