Despite the nation’s fiscal challenges, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has assured the populace that things are gradually improving.
He asserts that the currency is now experiencing some degree of stability as a result of the intervention of the Gold for Oil program.
On Wednesday, June 28, 2023, the president told some Muslims gathered at Black Star Square to mark this year’s Eid-ul Adha that his administration is making every effort to help the economy fully recover from the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic.
If I neglect to mention the economic problems our nation is facing in the wake of the COVID-19 outbreak, whose repercussions have been made worse by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, I will be remiss.
However, the president stated in his response, which 1Family Radio listened to, that “this government has continued to stand by its major policy commitments.”
“We’ve kept the lights on as usual. We’ve kept offering free SHS education. We have continued to make sure that vital medications are delivered by drone to isolated and underserved communities,” he said.
‘’We’ve kept the Zongo Development Fund, kept constructing new roads and fixing existing ones, continued with the One District, One Factory policy, and kept up another initiative called Planting for Food and Jobs.’’
“The price of petroleum goods has been stable recently thanks to the Gold for Oil initiative, which is also bringing down inflation; thus, the currency has recently experienced some stability. I guarantee you that things are improving and will continue to improve,’’ the president remarked.
