In this great reset led by His Excellency John Dramani Mahama, the Ghanaian cedi is staging a swift and steady comeback—something the so-called economic Messiah, Dr. Bawumia, should quietly take notes on. In fact, if dignity and respect mean anything to him now, silence might serve him better than his increasingly hollow economic rhetoric.
Ghana may be baking under the unforgiving heat of climate change, but nothing burns harder than the crash course Dr. Bawumia’s economic theories are receiving in real time. Deflation and cedi appreciation charts are saluting with more urgency than he ever did in his infamous Ghana Card and IT lectures. It was boring at the Judge Business School, Cambridge, recently, with another lecture.
Ghanaians still remember when he said the dollar was "arrested"? Well, it seems the only thing in cuffs now is his credibility. These days, he sounds less like an economist and more like a panicked environmentalist trying to stop coastal erosion with a wheelbarrow of Dzata cement.
It’s astounding how blind the ex-Vice President remains to empirical data. Still clinging to invisible market forces, his economic compass seems calibrated more toward selfish ambition than the common good of the entire nation.
And for ordinary Ghanaians left to fend for themselves with subsistence farming under failing policies, it’s not just economic—it's spiritual survival under his able watch.
Dr. Bawumia should understand by now: this isn’t about shooting fish in a barrel. It’s about leadership in a democracy. And in this moment, his “textbook fundamentals” had not just failed—they’d collapsed into a cautionary tale.
Time to stop talking, Sir. History is already writing your footnote under the current good governance (Aban papa).
