Never again shall Ghanaians be subjected to hardship – Finance Minister Cassiel Ato Forson pledges

The Finance Minister of Ghana has given Ghanaians much hope for the years ahead after promising to bring Ghanaians back on their feet financially. Ghanaians suffered in the last two years under the erstwhile government led by former president Nana Akufo-Addo Danquah. Things were extremely difficult, leading to Ghanaians voting massively against the then-ruling party, NPP.

With a new government under John Dramani’s leadership, things have started moving smoothly, with the cedi getting considerable strength against the dollar and the reduction of fuel leading to the reduction of lorry fares and groceries.

Cassiel Ato Forson, the Finance Minister who is in charge of the nation’s finances, has travelled to China for business meetings. Upon his return, he announced via his Facebook wall that Ghanians will not see suffering again under his leadership.

Ato Forson wrote;

My trip to China has come to an end, marked by constructive and forward-looking engagements with China’s Ministry of Finance, China Exim Bank, as well as our key financial and contractor creditors.

These discussions represent a monumental step forward in our efforts to bring finality to the debt restructuring process we inherited.

This mission was not just about numbers and negotiations — it was about safeguarding the future of our economy and the well-being of every Ghanaian.

We are steadily closing this difficult chapter in our economic history, and doing so with a solemn pledge: never again shall our people be subjected to such hardship.

The progress we’ve made gives me great confidence that we are on the brink of a new era of stability, resilience, and inclusive growth.
Ghana will rise stronger from this episode in our history, and together, we will build an economy that delivers for every citizen.

Happy New Month!”

Ghanaians are expecting that life will be easier for them financially, as Forson is forcing the economy to be very strong.
