Dr Mahamudu Bawumia in a posted insists that Ghana’s exchange rate has fared better under the Akufo-Addo-led government than the previous administration led by former President John Mahama.
He’s posted noted ;
“Fundamentally, we have managed the cedi much better by all accounts. We did arrest the depreciation of the cedi and if you look at the records in terms of the depreciation of the cedi in the last eight years, since the NPP came into power, the rate of the cedi depreciation is 50 percent less than what it was before. That is what the data shows. So yes indeed, we have arrested the depreciation of the cedi and brought down inflation and interest rates. We have also brought down the deficit and increased growth. We have reduced unemployment, reduced the price of electricity and water and created many jobs. We are the only government that had been able to do that,”.
Dr Bawumia took a bold step to defend the cedi, which according to the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), is depreciating against other major world currencies.
He has assured Ghanaian that the economy will bounce back after covid-19.
