Ghana’s Economy to Quickly Bounce Back Post-Pandemic – Bawumia

The Vice President of Ghana, Dr Mahamadu Bawumia says the country’s economy is on the right path to make a quick recovery after the coronavirus pandemic.

The Vice President said, the country under the leadership of President Akufo-Addo has seen several policy interventions that will quicken the process of returning its economy to a buoyant state.

 “The President has already placed Ghana on a trajectory that allows us to come out of this crisis relatively quickly” he asserted.

He cited an example of the Ghana Beyond Aid agenda which encapsulates policies such as the Planting for Food and Jobs, as one of the interventions that can help the country weather the scourge of the pandemic.

“As you know, one of the economic factors for growth in countries in the world after the pandemic is self-reliance. You are going to look at self-reliance in food production, manufacturing and in services– that is really the Ghana Beyond Aid that the President started talking about way before this pandemic came into being."

"And so that trajectory that we have already embarked upon will allow us to recover from this pandemic much more quickly than probably other pandemics,” he said.
