I have managed Ghana very well I Won’t Accept Mismanagement Accusations – President Akufo-Addo

President Akufo-Addo says he has prudently managed Ghana’s economy well in spite of the current challenges.

The current difficulties faced by the Ghanaian economy, he says, does not warrant anyone, especially members of the opposition National Democratic Congress, to accuse his government of mismanagement.

“I am opened to all manner of criticism but I won’t take those mismanagement accusations from anyone”, he said He maintains that Ghana’s economic crisis is caused by external factors such as the Covid-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war.

“We are all aware of the difficulties we went through during the Covi-19 era and the subsequent invasion of Ukraine by Russia, these shocks from the two unforeseen factors have heavily impacted the economy and are to be blamed for the country’s woes and not mismanagement by the government”‘

“Like everybody on this planet you have been hurt by exogenous shocks. First the pandemic, then Russia-Ukraine.

“And then we need to release it not because of bad policies in the country, but because of this combination of shocks”, he stated.

He further reiterated his government’s commitment of restoring the economy back to the path of growth and bringing relief to the people of Ghana.
