The Majority in Parliament has assured the World Bank Group that it will hold its own administration accountable, emphasising strict oversight as key to sustaining economic gains.

Speaking during a high-level engagement with the World Bank’s Managing Director and Chief Knowledge Officer, Paschal Donohoe, Majority Leader Mahama Ayariga highlighted the importance of translating positive economic indicators into tangible improvements in everyday life.

“The micro-indicators are good. We want to see how it translates on the streets, on the farms, and in the villages,” he said.

“Fuel prices have been coming down, food prices are falling, utility prices are reducing, interest rates in banks are declining, and the cedi remains stable against major currencies. All of this impacts the living conditions of the people.”

Ayariga stressed that while the caucus commends the government’s achievements within the first year in office, it will continue rigorous scrutiny to ensure credibility.

“Even though we have an overwhelming majority, our ability to remain effective depends on how credible we are as a caucus,” he said.

He insisted that disciplined oversight by the Majority, even of its own party, is essential for maintaining public trust and delivering sustainable growth, reinforcing the NDC’s commitment to long-term economic performance.
