The Presidential Candidate of the Movement for Change, Mr Alan Kyerematen, has pledged to stabilise the economy and reduce the exchange rate to below GH¢5 if elected President.
During his mega victory walk in the Greater Accra Region, on Saturday, Mr Kyerematen voiced his dismay over the current economic challenges, emphasising his commitment to an economic transformation that would address the country's inflation and exchange rate struggles. "The exchange rate is currently almost $1=GH¢17, and that is unacceptable," he stated that pledging to overhaul the economy and bring the rate to a level that would restore confidence and purchasing power for Ghanaians.
In his speech after the walk, Alan identified four major problems facing the nation - unemployment, corruption, illegal mining, and the ailing economy.
He assured the crowd that comprehensive solutions to these issues were embedded in his Great Transformational Plan (GTP), positioning it as the only detailed, pragmatic blueprint aimed at tackling the root causes of these challenges.
