New years are often the times when people take time off to set standards, goals and responsibilities for the days ahead.

Welcoming a New Year for most people means creating a new resolution and turning a new leaf at the beginning of the year offers a fresh start to goals and targets.

Many seize the opportunity to set new goals as an attempt to get rid of a bad habit or begin a healthier lifestyle, such as working hard, quitting smoking or losing weight.

As we ushered in the New Year, 2019, Ghanaians shared their expectations on how they perceive the year to turn out for them in an exclusive interview with Ghanaweb TV.

Speaking to some Ghanaians shortly after switching into 2019, one affirmed that he foresees 2019 to be a good year for Ghana and expects the government to make improvements in all sectors of the economy.

While some believe this year is the perfect time to draw closer to God in order to gain more blessings in terms of wisdom, knowledge and protection, others opine that they will depend on God throughout the year to see to their needs.
