This man has not said anything sensible before. The cedi to the dollar rate has been around this value since August last year and it's still the same so what are talking about. This country is in crisis mode since we lack quality intellectual only praise singers. The president must take his time to appoint people who knows and can do the job to his govt and not to rush to make people happy. Some of these people will praise you and later turn around to accuse you when they did not benefit from you .

This so called Economist is a joke with NDC foot soldier talk. How van he mak this statement. The major player in this is we import too much than we export even things we can do locally. Rice, chicken products, snails, cocoa products, tomatoes, furniture, clothes, politics materials, drinks, petroleum products, vegetable oils ect. All these can be done but our leaders are not thinking in that line.

@Lion. My brother, you are not making sense with your comments. If you are not comfortable with a particular discipline do not comment . How can the cedi lbe more valuable than the dollar when you Lion cannot use the cedi beyond the shores of Ghana. You are just empty . How much exports do we send to generate the dollars to support the cedi. Dont disgrace yourself if you are not comfirtable with finance and economics

Was this statement coming from.a profesdor? Eissssh. How can the govt curb the demand by govt itsekf and businesses. Are we not under abfree market economy prof? Is the prof not aware that if govt intervenes, it will rather drive the cedi into further depreciation. I read he claims the cedi will see some stabolitu after March. What imperical evidence did he show? Is the prof aware of any foreign inflow to bolster our cedi against the dollar. We have some profs in Ghana oh. We are waiting to ser if BOG will not intervene when the cedi slumps l. And we expect prif Mensah to come back and tell us there is manipulation. SMH

Hehehe, Prof is preparing our minds towards this government's failure at taming the dollar against the cedi ooo. Hmmm, since time immemorial, the central bank has always sold dollars for the sake of controlling depreciation, so what makes what happened last year any different? The cedi to dollar rate follows demand and supply, period!

Just that the level of illiteracy is too high in Ghana hence we allow politicians to play with our intelligences. We have many graduates just in the name of we have a degree yet they fail to apply their intellectual sense. It's funny to hear people saying l am graduate but if you listen to his/her analysis and a way of debating issue you may end up vomiting. the truth of our country and it's economic cannot be magically managed. Our politicians should fix the real fundamental cause of dollars and fuel ups and downs. I believe if NPP has got the magical powers l don't think they would have messed up themselves to be booted out. Same way if NDC previous government had got the solution l don't think they would have also messed up, since being in power is so beautiful and nice. The same trend is going to continue untill Jesus Christ comes. Unless we get different forces to eradicate all these problems with lasting solutions. Just mark my words NDC will never make life better as they claimed during campaign. We the electorates should stop partisan and tribal politics and look at Ghana's interest first.
