Former president John Mahama is reported to have said over the weekend that, the cedi is depreciating at a faster rate under this current government than it did under his government.
This statement has generated a lot of controversies as to whether the cedi is depreciating and the rate at which is it as compare to the previous administration.
Responding to the Vice President’s comment on the cedi depreciation, Mr Forson says, “rather than focusing on “arresting the cedi” and attending to the legitimate concerns of businesses, Dr. Bawumia has again swung into propaganda mode in reaction to a simple tweet by Former President Mahama that only sought to remind him gently about his own past views on the depreciation of the cedi”.
