Finance Minister Dr Cassiel Ato Forson has reassured Ghanaians of the government’s unwavering commitment to addressing their concerns, emphasising that every policy being rolled out is designed to ease hardship and deliver meaningful change.
Delivering the 2025 Mid-Year Budget Review in Parliament on Thursday, July 24, Dr Forson acknowledged the challenges citizens have faced over the past few years, while highlighting the government's dedication to restoring hope and improving livelihoods.
“We see you, we hear you and we're working for you,” he declared, drawing attention to the administration’s sensitivity to public concerns.
He stressed that the Mahama-led government has taken significant steps within its first 200 days to stabilise the economy, enhance social protection, and support job creation.
Dr Forson said these efforts are grounded in the belief that governance must respond to the real needs of the people.
The Finance Minister also called for unity and patience, noting that while the path to full recovery may be long, the government remains focused on inclusive growth and long-term prosperity.
Parliament is expected to debate the revised estimates in the coming days as part of the legislative process.
