The governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) says President Akufo-Addo is working hard to restore the economy from the ravages of Covid-19 and the Russia-Ukraine war.
The NPP said it understands and appreciate the difficulties the citizenry are going through due to the current economic crisis the country is experiencing.
In a tweet on Thursday, July 27, the Director of Communications of the party, Richard Ahiagbah urged Ghanaians to join hands with the government to restore the economy.
According to him, without the support of the Ghanaian people, the government cannot achieve any of its objectives.
“We are working hard to bring back the economy because we see the difficulties Ghanaians are having to endure due to the ravages of Covid-19 and Russia's War in Ukraine.”
“With the support of Ghanaians, the economy is turning around and trending toward stability. We are in it together!”

President Akufo-Addo, recently reiterated his government’s commitment to making the ailing economy stronger.
He said his government is working assiduously to restore the economy to full health.
Addressing Muslims during the Eid-Ul-Adha celebration on Wednesday, June 28, the President said the stability in prices of petroleum products and the local currency is causing a reduction in inflation.
“I said at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic that we do not know how to bring back lives, but we know how to bring back an economy. I stand by those words. Insha Allah, we are working to restore the economy to full health, and, Insha Allah, we shall do so”.
“The currency has seen some stability lately, and, through the Gold for Oil Programme, we have seen the stability in the prices of petroleum products as well, all of which are bringing inflation down. Things are getting better, and will get better, I can assure you. Things are getting better and will get better.”
The economy in recent times has taken a downturn with prices of goods and services skyrocketing, unsustainable debt stock and a wobbly currency have resulted in the government seeking a $3 million bailout from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
