Ghana’s economy classified among the worst-performing in the world under Akufo-Addo/Bawumia – Mahama

Presidential Candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has accused the Akufo-Addo administration of destroying the economy.
He says that under the watch of President Akufo-Addo and Vice President Dr Bawumia, Ghana’s economy has been classified as one of the worst performing in the world.

This, he said, is embarrassing hence Ghanaians should vote out the NPP for him to reset Ghana.

In a Facebook post Mr Mahama said “Akufo-Addo and Bawumia government has allowed our economy to be classified among the worst-performing in the world. Together, we must RESET Ghana. Vote for change on December 7th.”

His comments come at a time when President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo the economy is recovering.

President Akufo-Addo said  Recent data from the Bank of Ghana shows that Ghana’s economy is firmly on the path of recovery. Provisional GDP growth of 6.9% in the second quarter of 2024, with a robust non-oil growth of 7.0%, highlights the strength of our agriculture, industry, and services sectors.

He added “This milestone is a testament to the Bank of Ghana’s commitment to sound monetary policies under the leadership of Governor Ernest Addison and his dedicated team. I applaud their efforts, as well as the creativity and expertise of the architects, engineers, and contractors—especially GoldKey Properties, a wholly Ghanaian entity—that brought this vision to life. Together, we are building a foundation for a resilient economy, inclusive growth, and a brighter future for all Ghanaians.”

“As we celebrate this achievement, I call on all of us to continue working together to build an economy that is stable, inclusive, and prosperous.

“The Bank Square is not just a symbol of what we have accomplished; it is an inspiration for what lies ahead. Let us remain united in our efforts to make Ghana great and strong!” he said.
