Ghanaian artiste and entrepreneur, D-Black, has expressed his frustration over the current economic hardship in the country. On May 30, he took to social media platform X to lament the state of the economy, citing various factors that have contributed to the suffering of Ghanaians under the Akufo-Addo government.
D-Black, known as the ‘Enjoyment Minister’, described the current state of the country’s economy as the lowest he has ever experienced. He highlighted the alarming rate of unemployment, the high cost of goods and services, and the rapid depreciation of the cedi as some of the factors contributing to the economic hardship.
The musician’s tweet resonated with many Ghanaians who have been complaining about the economic difficulties they face. The cedi’s depreciation has worsened the plight of Ghanaians, who have urged the government to take urgent action to address the issue.
In a recent interview, Deputy Finance Minister Stephen Amoah acknowledged that cedi depreciation is a long-standing problem that has affected various governments. He, however, attributed the issue to Ghana’s reliance on imports, stating that the country’s economy is largely driven by imports.
Amoah expressed optimism that Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, who is expected to assume the presidency next year, will provide a lasting solution to the cedi depreciation problem. He stated that Bawumia will design a long-term framework to address the issue.
D-Black’s frustration reflects the concerns of many Ghanaians who are struggling to make ends meet due to the economic hardship. The high cost of living, coupled with the lack of job opportunities, has made life difficult for many citizens.
The cedi’s depreciation has had a ripple effect on the economy, leading to an increase in the cost of goods and services. This has made it difficult for many Ghanaians to afford basic necessities, let alone enjoy some of the comforts of life.
The government has been urged to take immediate action to address the economic challenges facing the country. Many have called for a comprehensive economic reform that will promote economic growth and development.
D-Black’s tweet has sparked a national conversation about the state of the economy and the need for urgent action to address the challenges facing the country. Many have expressed solidarity with the artiste, sharing their own experiences of economic hardship.
The government’s response to the economic challenges will be crucial in determining the future of the country. Ghanaians are eagerly waiting to see if the government will take concrete steps to address the issues facing the economy and provide relief to citizens who are struggling to make ends meet.
