As President John Dramani Mahama marks his first year in office, Some Ghanaians are sharing their views on his performance, with many praising the government’s achievements in stabilizing the economy.
They said the administration has delivered on several fronts, including stable prices, a stronger cedi, and a more disciplined fiscal stance.
The reduction in inflation from 23% to 6% and the settlement of the $709 million Eurobond are seen as clear wins that have boosted confidence in the government’s economic management.
Speaking to Happy Kaseɛbɔ, some Ghanaians flagged concerns about the slow pace of progress in certain areas.
The anti-galamsey drive is seen as slow, youth unemployment remains a stubborn challenge, and some feel that “Operation Recover All Loot” (ORAL) hasn’t moved fast enough.
“President Mahama’s government has done well in stabilizing the economy, but we need to see more action on unemployment and galamsey.”
“The government’s efforts are commendable, but we can’t ignore the challenges that remain,” added Ama Agyei, a trader.
