“I thank God for seeing us through 2021. I also pray for those who we, unfortunately, lost during the year. As we have entered the new year, I pray that Ghana continues to be peaceful. We are of different ethnicities and religions, but we are all children of God.

What makes Ghana unique is our unity in diversity, and we should continue to focus on that. Notwithstanding the global economic impact of Covid-19, I am very optimistic about Ghana’s future, and 2022 should see us continue on the path of economic transformation that we are embarking on,” he noted.
