Ghana’s economy is witnessing a remarkable recovery, with key economic growth indicators serving as evidence, outgoing President Akufo-Addo has claimed.

In his final New Year’s message to Ghanaians, the president attributed the growth to a strong 7.2% growth rate achieved in the third quarter of 2024.

He stated that Ghanaians have been resilient in the face of challenges, and through the efforts deployed by his administration, the economy has seen positive growth despite both global and domestic hurdles.

“Additionally, our economy is rebounding impressively, as demonstrated by the remarkable 7.2% growth achieved in Q3 of 2024, with the year’s growth rate projected at 6.8%.

“These achievements are not just numbers or statistics. They are stories of lives changed and futures made brighter. But I also acknowledge the challenges we have faced. The road has not always been smooth, and there have been times of difficulty and sacrifice.”

“The post-COVID-19 years have tested us to our limits, but they have also reminded us of who we are—a people who rise together, no matter the odds.”
