The Majority Leader, Mahama Ayariga, has expressed confidence that the 2025 budget will provide hope to the Ghanaian people and play a key role in stabilising the country’s economy.
Speaking on the floor of Parliament after the budget statement was presented by the Minister of Finance on Tuesday, March 11, Mr Ayariga stated, "This is the budget that gives hope to the Ghanaian people. This is the budget that will stabilise the economy."
He continued, "This budget will create jobs for the youth of this country, as it will provide the necessary environment for the private sector to thrive, thereby generating employment opportunities.
Mr Ayariga also highlighted that several sectors would benefit from the budget’s implementation. "Fishermen, okada riders, taxi drivers, students, and those in the energy sector will all see positive changes through the measures outlined in this budget," he added.
He concluded his remarks by thanking the Finance Minister for the budget presentation and assuring the Minority Leader, "We are ready to debate and demonstrate that the proposals in the Finance Minister’s statement will indeed reset Ghana. Ghana is being reset."
