Former NPP General Secretary John Boadu has raised concerns over the Ghanaian government’s handling of the cedi’s recent appreciation, questioning its economic impact on Adom TV’s Badwam show. Despite the cedi’s 42.6% gain against the US dollar in 2025, Boadu criticized the lack of spending on loans, contractors, or new projects, warning of stagnant economic activity, per MyJoyOnline.
Finance Minister Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, in the 2025 Mid-Year Fiscal Policy Review, hailed the cedi’s performance—up 30.3% against the pound and 25.6% against the euro—as historic, contrasting it with 2024’s 18.6% depreciation, per Ghana News Agency. Yet, Boadu’s critique highlights ongoing economic challenges. The Ghana cedi appreciation debate questions government priorities.
