Help me take Ghana out of this economic mess—Mahama to Otumfuo

President of Ghana, John Dramani Mahama, has told the Asantehene that he will be counting on his corporation to take Ghana from the woods.

He recalled how the King of Ashanti used his network to help him during his first term as president and reminded him of his imperative support for his administration.

John Dramani Mahama, who was speaking at the First Akwasidae on Sunday, January 19, 2025, indicated the dire situation he met.

Noting that the support of the Otumfuo will be sought to make things smoother for him.

“Our nation Ghana is facing a dire economic crisis, while this is not the first time we have been in such a crisis. This particular crisis is characterised by a high rate of inflation, macroeconomic instability, a depreciating currency, and a debt default which has shut us out of the international credit market.

“It’s a more daunting challenge than we have ever experienced in our history. Your Royal  Majesty, as a former president between 2013 and 2017, we faced macroeconomic instability. And I remember some of the times we had obstacles in our way of bringing stability to our economy and restoring economic growth.

“I had the privilege of calling on you to use your influence and diplomacy to smoothen the path so that it could open up the path towards prosperity and progress and anytime I called on you, you didn’t hesitate. And I would like to thank you for your cooperation I enjoyed with you at that time. As we have inherited a difficult economic situation, I will be calling on you again from time to time. And I know that anytime I call on you, you will not hesitate so that we work together to put our nation back on its feet,” he said while speaking at the Akwasidae.
