MP for Anyaa Sowutuom Constituency, Dickson Adomako Kissi

As the cedi continues to appreciate, many Ghanaians have praised the Mahama-led government for implementing drastic measures to restore the strength of the local currency.

Speaking on this development in an interview on GHOne TV, monitored by GhanaWeb Business, former Member of Parliament for Anyaa Sowutuom Constituency, Dickson Adomako Kissi, expressed his excitement over the cedi’s improved performance against major trading currencies.

According to him, the cedi’s appreciation positively impacts the lives of Ghanaians, as it leads to lower prices of goods and services.

“I'm happy that the cedi is performing well; it affects all of our lives. So, I won’t sit here and say that I’m not happy about its appreciation,” he said.

However, the NPP MP noted that the government should also acknowledge other contributing factors, such as the NPP’s gold-for-oil program, which has helped stabilize the cedi.
