Ghana faces $6.1bn debt-service burden from 2027 to 2029 due to Akufo-Addo’s DDEP – Haruna Iddrisu

The Education Minister questioned how much public revenue would remain for critical national priorities when significant resources had to be committed to servicing inherited debt.

He said the government would have to balance debt servicing with investment in essential public services and measures to support economic growth.

Mr Iddrisu maintained that the current government’s fiscal challenges must be considered in the context of the debt obligations it inherited.
