Majority Leader and Leader of Government Business, Mahama Ayariga, has heaped praises on the John Mahama-led administration, highlighting what he described as a solid economic turnaround driven by sound fiscal discipline and a resilient economic team.
Speaking passionately on the floor of Parliament, Ayariga called on lawmakers to support the Finance Minister and his team in their continued efforts to stabilize the economy.
According to him, Ghana is witnessing one of the strongest currency rebounds in recent financial history, a development he believes is easing the burden on ordinary citizens. "Mr Speaker, this House must support our indefatigable Finance Minister… to continue along the lines of fiscal prudence and his dogged pursuit of appreciating the Ghana Cedi, reducing inflation and prices, reducing interest rates and revitalizing our private sector, renewing hope in the Ghanaian," he said.
Ayariga stressed that the strengthening of the cedi is not just a feel-good statistic, but one that's already having real-world impact, as seen in lower transport fares and a reduction in prices of imported food products.
