Speaking to Accra based Joy TV in an interview, he said all stakeholders involved in the planning have been consulted and the date has been confirmed.

“I’m the Chairman of the Committee in Parliament, that is, the State of the Nation Address Committee of Parliament, and the President will deliver the message on the state of the nation on the 30th, that is next week Wednesday.

“Yesterday, I had a meeting with all the stakeholders in place to be able to see how prepared, and the readiness they are.

“Yesterday, we had a meeting and it has been very successful…we understand and we know that the President will come and deliver the message on the State of the Nation,” he said.

President Akufo-Addo was to deliver the 2022 SONA on Thursday, March 3, 2022, but the Business Committee in Parliament said the address had to be postponed.

Mr. Habib Iddrisu had explained that the reason that date was postponed was due to its closeness to the 6th March Independence Day Celebrations which he said would have stolen the shine of the President’s message.
