Dr. Forson mentioned that after assuming the role of Finance Minister, several specific actions have been implemented to revive the economy, resulting in stabilized exchange and inflation rates
In a post on his X page ahead of the mid-year budget presentation on Thursday, July 24, Dr Forson said that “At my vetting, I made a firm commitment to the Ghanaian people: to stabilise the exchange rate, reduce inflation, and create jobs.
“These were not mere words—they were promises backed by action. Soon after, I stepped out of the meeting rooms and into the markets—to hear firsthand how the cedi’s depreciation was affecting livelihoods. I listened, I took note, and I acted in the 2025 Budget, I laid out a clear roadmap—concrete measures to restore economic stability and rebuild confidence.”
He added “now, as we approach the Mid-Year Fiscal Policy Review, I return to you, the people, to reflect on the journey so far—and to ask: are we making the needed impact so far?”
