Economist and University of Cape Coast (UCC) lecturer, Professor John Gatsi, has attributed the delay in the presentation of the 2025 Mini-Budget to President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, asserting that the responsibility for the budget ultimately lies with the president under constitutional and legal provisions.

This followed Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin's decision to adjourn parliamentary proceedings to January 2, 2025, after Finance Minister Dr.

Mohammed Amin Adam failed to deliver the anticipated 2025 Mini-Budget.

Despite widespread expectations, the presentation did not materialize, leading Speaker Bagbin to adjourn the session.
