after gaining a lot of money and building a mansion in Accra or Kumasi, if you don't think of building a good mansion in your hometown for yourself and your relatives, somewhere in the districts, then I don't know what to say of you. What would you do with your money? In a certain constituency, no one knows the MPs house o! No one knows the minister's mansion. Does he really hail from the constituency? If the MP or minister hasn't thought of building a house or mansion in the constituency, then why would he think of tarring a road or building a hospital. Ghana fo), yen hwe yie!

Their understanding of good economic management is deferring loan repayments.
The youth of Ghana must watch what is going on in Kenya and wake up; these thieves have mortgaged our future.

Ghanaians are aggrieved and will vote against you on December 7. Any attempts that the NPP will make to rig the Polls will be a disaster for them.

Actually this is the way the NPP people often try to deceive us. Even if the cedi returns to 10 cedis to the dollar they have not done anything good. Remember it was less than 5 cedis to the dollar when they came into power

Their intention is not to deceive. They simply have no clue to how the economy works. The moment they see a little sign, they are unable to analyse properly and starts talking before realising that they have goofed big time. The moment Bawumia saw the first ID card, he ignorantly started shouting that it could be used to travel everywhere in the world. Those in position in the npp are mere dafts that are destroying everything.

Akuffo Addo also being brainwashed to saying that now the economy will rebound like how?
When a tuber of yam is is 40c and above? And a carton of fish which is used to be 140ghc is now 1500ghc and a carton of chicken wings which used to cost 70ghc is now 800ghc?
Who advises Akuffo Addo? Why isn't there any wiser person in Akuffo Addo's government?

Akufo Addo himself is a dumb head. How would a dumb head be able to select intelligent people to help him in government. His yardstick is his own dumb head.

This guy talks too much. This is just a sign of someone who lacks critical thinking skills. Deep thinkers and problem-solvers are not loud. No serious-minded finance expert will be doing this kind of political gimmick.

Is this fool of a finance minister a true PhD holder? No proper PhD holder can speak like this, knowing very well that there are confounding variables, control variables, mediators, moderators etc which are in between and will be affecting the key variables of cedi depreciation and debt restructuring. Dutch passport is better than his PhD.

I didn't know this PhD holder is such a buffoon! You don't play politics with the economy like this, especially with the volatility of our exchange rate regime given the country's structural challenges. Did he know that we are going to pay about $144 million of our debt in the 3rd and 4th quarter of the year? An election year for that matter? Even in a period that we have defaulted since 2022, look at the economy. In any case, how did we get here in the first place? We have wasted nearly 8 years of our country's history on these squares pegs in round holes!!

Finance Minister, becareful about the cedi depreciation. Find means that will protect any dollars the central bank will pour out into the system. Otherwise politicians and businessmen will buy them all and put it in their foreign accounts
Also take a closer look at how the depreciation of the cedi is also on the other hand making Ghanaians outside the country especially those in the US bringing in more money for investment, take a look at it also

Most educated persons usually try to be real by arguing or making claims based on credible statistics. Please be real, for most anecdotal evidence seems to be out of step with your claims.

Simply put the minister has no knowledge about what goes into the depreciation of the cedi.
