President John Dramani Maha­ma has given the indication that his government has not discussed the possibility of extending Ghana's US$3 billion extended credit facility with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

The focus of the government for now, President Mahama said was to stay on course with the current programme which expires in 2026. "We've not talked about an extension of the programme.

We are determined to continue with this programme. "If it's necessary to look at additional funds or to extend the programme, we'll look at it, but for now, we are determined to continue on this trajectory," President Mahama said.

He made this known in an interview with Bloomberg on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference last Friday.
