Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta, has challenged all Ghanaians not to lose sight of the greatest strength of being Ghanaian despite the challenges facing the country.
He is therefore asking all of us to play a constructive role in getting the nation fully back on track.
Presenting the 2023 Budget and Economic Policy, Mr. Ofori-Atta said the country has real prospects and will rise again despite the challenges.
“The challenges we face are daunting but we must not lose sight of the greatest strength of being Ghanaian: resilience, entrepreneurial zeal, faith, courage, solidarity and hope. I, therefore, ask all of us to play a constructive role in getting our nation fully back on track”.
“Ours is a country with real prospects and the challenges notwithstanding, Ghana will rise again, and my faith is premised on the fact that a lot has already been achieved, especially over the course of the Fourth Republic and our policy, as outlined in this budget to reset the economy, if supported will ensure that, indeed, we have not wasted the current global crisis”, he explained.
He assured that the economy will bounce back stronger and the progress and prosperity of the people even more assured.
