President John Dramani Mahama has assured Ghanaians living in the United Kingdom that the country’s economy is back on track and investor confidence is increasing.
He has also assured them of deliberate policy actions to capitalize on the gains and support Ghana’s development program following the successful completion of the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) extended credit facility.
During his working tour to the UK, the President made the guarantee during a meeting with Ghanaians residing in the UK at London Town Hall.
According to him, “the macro economy is stable, and all the indicators are looking very much in the right direction.”
He pointed out that in order to improve the poor performance left over from the previous administration; the government had to make really difficult choices.
“But that is what life is about when you are ill, sometimes you have to take bitter medicine before you get better. And I’m happy to say that the sacrifices that Ghanaians made have paid off and Ghana is back on track again.”
The President informed Ghanaians that Ghana has become the global poster child for economic recovery and that many experts are shocked by how this accomplishment was made.
“When they go for the spring meetings of the World Bank and the IMF, everybody is pointing to the other African countries, to Ghana and say, go to Ghana and learn how we did it” he concluded.
