The governor of the Bank of Ghana, Dr Johnson Asiama, led a symbolic tree-planting exercise at the bank’s headquarters, The Bank Square, on November 20, 2025, as part of activities marking the 60th anniversary of the Ghana cedi.

The initiative forms part of the Bank’s broader environmental commitment, aiming to plant 60 trees in honour of Cedi@60, while promoting sustainability within the Bank’s operational environment.

Dr Asiama was joined by the First Deputy Governor, Dr Zakari Mumuni, senior bank officials, and staff, who collectively participated in the planting ceremony.

The event underscored the Bank’s drive to foster a greener, more resilient ecosystem and align with national environmental conservation goals.

Speaking during the exercise, Dr Asiama highlighted that the Cedi@60 celebration is not only a reflection on Ghana’s currency journey but also an opportunity to contribute meaningfully to the future.

“Planting these trees symbolises growth and our commitment to safeguarding the environment for generations to come,” he said.

The tree-planting activity reaffirms the Bank of Ghana’s dedication to sustainability, responsible stewardship, and national development as it commemorates six decades of the Ghana cedi.

In addition, the First and Second Deputy Governors, Dr Zakari Mumuni and Matilda Asante-Asiedu, planted trees at various Bank of Ghana office locations to further promote the initiative.
