Ghana’s President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has promised Ghanaians his willingness to reduce food prices in the country in the coming days.
According to him, with the provision of trucks to market queens for the movement of food items from the rural areas to the urban areas.
Adding that, this forms part of efforts by the government to address the increasing rate of inflation, which currently stands at 31.7 per cent.
President Akufo-Addo made this assertion at the 22nd General Meeting of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana at Kwahu Abetifi in the Eastern Region.
“Arrangements are being made with market women, market queens, in popular parlance, to provide trucks to evacuate foodstuffs from rural markets to urban centres to help reduce the cost of food prices in the city.”
