Finance Minister Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson has called on Ghanaians to remain united and have faith in the country’s economic recovery efforts, assuring that better days lie ahead.

Delivering the 2025 Mid-Year Budget Statement to Parliament on Thursday, July 24, Dr. Ato Forson expressed optimism about the future of the Ghanaian economy, noting that ongoing reforms are laying the foundation for sustained growth, job creation, and renewed investor confidence.

“Mr. Speaker, as we look forward, more jobs will be created, confidence will deepen, and the Ghanaian economy will stand tall again—not just in the sub-region, but on the global stage,” he said.

Dr. Forson, however, emphasised that national progress would require unity and a collective sense of purpose.

“To do this, Mr. Speaker, we must stay united as a people and eschew divisiveness. We must continue to have faith in our country, Ghana!” he added.

Acknowledging the sacrifices made by various segments of society during recent economic challenges, the Finance Minister said both businesses and ordinary citizens had borne the brunt of the crisis.

“We understand businesses went through some sacrifices during the turbulent economic challenges, but so did the ordinary Ghanaian,” he noted.

Dr. Forson reaffirmed the government’s commitment to pursuing inclusive growth strategies and policies that would ensure shared prosperity for all Ghanaians.Source:Leticia Osei
