Outspoken Ghanaian actress, Lydia Forson, says she cannot be moved, no matter how many positive statistics are put up by the Ghanaian government about the improvements on the economy to deceive outsiders, because the economic progress should be seen in the lives of the masses. She stated that she looks at how well a country is progressing by the standard of living of its residents and not some figures people have no clue of.

 Sequel to the debate between  the country’s two leading political parties, the New Patriotic Party(NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) about who has managed the economy better and who needs to be handed the opportunity to do more, Lydia Forson has weighed in on the argument by suggesting that the only way to judge is to compare standards of living during both eras.

 “I will always measure how well a country is doing based on the basic amenities the citizens have access to. This whole economy talk means nothing to me if a majority of the population are struggling. Call me a dreamer , but it’s the world I want to live in,” she wrote on twitter.

The arguments is centered on who has made the economy better during different types of crisis, comparing the Ebola outbreak period to the current coronavirus period.
